1. Old train I can hear your whistle blow
   And I won't be jumpin' on again
   Old train I've been everywhere you go
   And I know what lies beyond each bend

(Chorus)
    Old train each time you pass
    You're older than the last
    And it seems I'm too old for running
    I hear your rusty wheels
    Today against the rails
    They cry with every mile
    I think I'll stay away (a while)

Chorus:

2. Old train I grow weary at the miles
   And I miss the freedom that was mine
   Old train just to think about those times
   I'll smile when your hot-ball'en by (you had ball'en by)

Chorus:
