Sad Old Train Lyrics - Singles - Donna Hughes

That sad old train 

Sleepin' on an old rusty track 

She was from another time 

Gone with the wind like the smoke from that old stack 

She brought smiles and wavin' hands 

As she whistled by a sleepy town 

It was once the way to go 

Just a shiny nickel and you were homeward bound 

And Ive seen better days like that sad old train 

On an old abandoned track 

When you were holdin' me, I knew someday youd leave 

Like that old train, you wont be comin' back 

She gently rumbled in the sunshine 

As she carried home the mail 

Her letters keepin' lovers waitin' 

And friendly little boys placin' pennies on her rails 

I can relate to that old train 

Since you left me all alone again 

And no one ever comes around 

Once upon a time we were ridin' on the wind 

Ive seen better days like that old sad train 

On an old forgotten track 

When you were holdin' me, I knew someday youd leave 

Like that old train, you wont be comin' back 

Like that old train, never comin' back
