Born on a Train
[Verse 1]
Some roads are only seen at night
Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs
But some nights the neon gas gets free
And turns into walking dead like me
[Chorus]
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
I'll have to go when the whistle blows
The whistle knows my name
Baby, I was born on a train
[Verse 2]
Well, I know that you were never young
And I know you probably won't get old
But, honey, nobody's gonna hurt you anymore
And nobody's gonna make you want to die
[Chorus]
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
I'll have to go when the whistle blows
The whistle knows my name
Baby, I was born on a train
[Verse 3]
I'll go some cold and grey morning
And you won't remember anything
Well, some people don't believe in dying
But some of us don't believe in life
[Chorus]
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
I'll have to go when the whistle blows
The whistle knows my name
Baby, I was born on a train
Baby, I was born on a train
