The Train Lyrics - Outkast

All aboard! 

Or, are all y'all bored? 

It's good to have y'all back now 

Ladies and gents 

Y'all already know what it is 

God don't make no mistakes 

God don't make no mistakes 

Little do they know when I was brought up in this game 

Twenty always been the five (?) so spittin' I made a change 

Like the diaper on the bottom of my baby daughter 

I wasn't ready to be no father, made me kind of ... 

'Cause when I saw her, I sweat and made a tear fall 

Not tears of sorrow, but of joy, so listen here, y'all 

I grab the mic and move the crowd and disappear 

Dog, back in '94, that was the motherfucking year home-boy 

Then that Southernplayalistic went platinum, stacks on deck 

Claims (?) tellin' us to pay our taxes 

Walkin' round the table in the kitchen just for practice 

Reciting rhymes to sharpen mine, now (?) to the masses

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Watch Will Smith perform to iconic song 'Prince Ali' from Aladdin 

It's been a good long road 

Now it's time for me to go 

I say, Goodbye 

(Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) 

Time to spread my wings 

So high up in the sky 

I can't even fly 

(I fly, I fly, I fly so high) 

Welcome to my life, I think it's time we take it back 

I gotta give you all the facts so you see what type of cat 

That you dealing with, now in ATLiens she was killin' it 

And then my Auntie passed, she was like my mother, I was illin' it 

The first person close to me to die needed healing 

But I see her as an angel when I look up at the ceiling 

Like my daddy, angry daddy, Uncle ... was steady chilin' 

So you gotta keep on livin' like ... the beginin'

It's your birthday 

Even on your worst day 

Be like the first day 

I'm Antwan Andre 

Or General Patton if you know about ... got hurt 

I-I-I be on that Kryptonite 

That means I can't be hurt 

Gotta leave this place 

It's been cool 

But I gotta go 

It's been a good long road 

Now it's time for me to go 

I say, Goodbye 

(Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) 

Time to spread my wings 

So high up in the sky 

I can't even fly 

(I fly, I fly, I fly so high) 

Livin' on a train 

Shoulda asked you for remains (?) 

I'll be back again 

I know we've been through a lot, and I ain't perfect, but I swear to you, I'm a changed man. 

Livin' on a train 

Shoulda asked you for remains (?) 

I'll be back again 

And now it's time to say goodbye 

They should've turned me loose 

I was all about my team 

But now I call upon my crew 

I'm a family type of person 

But I'm deadly ... too 

You can achieve anything 

That you put your heart in to 

See, the second hand won't ever stop 

And neither will the clock 

Nigga Big still hit the stage 

By himself and still rock 

'Cause when your faith is in the right place 

See, He ain't gon' let you flock 

You can say whatever you want 

I bet you can't do it like 'Boi Stop' 

Before you say you ... 

Please no excuse this time 

Don't be afraid to fly, fly, fly 

You never know what day the doors will close 

It's time to say goodbye 

Time to pack up and ride, ride, ride 

Gotta leave this place 

It's been cool 

But I gotta go 

I can take it from here, ladies. Y'all done a good deed tonight. 

It's been a good long road 

Now it's time for me to go 

I say, Goodbye 

(Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) 

Time to spread my wings 

So high up in the sky 

I can't even fly 

(I fly, I fly, I fly so high)
