Runaway Train Lyrics - Stray Cats

Well I fell down on the barroom floor 

Well the bartender said don't come in here no more 

I passed out in the parking lot 

They took one look at me and said look what we got 

Well knocked out drunk, passing time 

I bought a one ticket on a two way line 

How come every single girl I've ever met 

Wants to know about things that haven't happened yet 

Well making love to you is like a mystery date 

I'm always early and you're always late 

Things are just never going to be the same 

Making love to you is like a runaway train 

Illinois central, Southern freight 

I'm comin' round a-baby, don't you hesitate 

Can't you hear the train coming down the track 

Once I'm leaving now, I'm never coming back 

Things are just never gonna be the same 

Making love to you is like a runaway train 

Well making love to you is like a mystery date 

I'm always early and you're always late 

Things are just never going to be the same 

Making love to you is like a runaway train 

I don't know but I think I've lost my mind 

Every time that I'm with you I hear that train coming down the line 

I see the train a-coming and it's right on time 

We got a third rail love with a one track mind 

Well can't you hear the train a-coming down the track 

I ain't stoppin' now, I'm never coming back 

Things are just never gonna be the same 

Making love to you is like a runaway train
