Night Train
Bill Morrissey
[]I ve been hanging around this station
[]long enough to know
where the []brakeman disappears
when the []whistle blows
And []who s gonna make it out all right
when the final night train shows
Ah []babe, it s []true
I ve []seen a lot of women here
waiting just like []you. [] []
[]Hear the fireman start singing
the []same time every day
and his []well planned getaway
and it s a []shame to hear such a pretty voice
with not one thing to say
Ah []babe, it s []true
you []would have loved him back in time
if he d only sung for []you.[] []
[]Moonlight in the water tower
[]always shines so cold
in the []shadow of the pay phone
the []saints are getting bold
And it []don t matter to them now
if it s real or just fool s gold
Ah, []babe, it s []true
I []heard all the saints tonight
talking only of []you. [] []
[]Listen deep into the night, girl
Can you []hear the whistle blow?
Looks []like you re gonna make it out all right
but there s []one thing you must know:
The only []ones who can help you now
are the ones who must stay here when you go
Ah []babe, it s []true
I ve []seen a lot of women here
smiling just like []you. [] []
[]And there are some saints still in hiding
by the []river in the reeds
And they re []turning down every train
that don t []feel the right speed
Sing them this []song when you pass by
It ll be your last good deed
Ah []babe, it s []true
The []saints are down every line
waiting just for []you.
