Lincoln Town Lyrics - John Hiatt

What I feel is like an old freight train 

Five miles long in the pouring rain 

Rolling out of Detroit loaded up with shiny cars 

And I'm sitting in a Cadillac smoking on a big cigar 

What I feel's like an engine room 

Open it up and smell the perfume 

I love that diesel burning up the atmosphere 

When you hear me blow well honey baby know I'm here 

CHORUS: 

Well I'm going down to Lincoln town 

Turn your pretty little head around 

Take the next train outward bound 

Carry you out of Lincoln town

Well babe you know my home is with you 

There ain't no town or city will do 

I need a rolling partner carrying me down the line 

and I'm a-comin' into Lincoln town baby right on time 

Well love is like an automobile 

or maybe a freight train dependin' on how you feel 

Big wheels rolling listen to that engine whine 

Well rubber or steel honey baby I don't mind

When you see that old black smoke 

You know it's time to pack you a coat 

Meet me at the station about a quarter to nine 

You can ride in my Cadillac honey you can ride the blinds
