Train round the bend
Takin' me away from the country
I'm sick of the trees
Take me to the city
Train goin' round the bend
Train comin' round the bend

Been in the country much too long
Trying to be a farmer
But nothing that I planted ever seemed to grow
Train comin' round the bend
Train comin' round the bend

Hey, I am just a city boy
I'm really not the country kind
I miss the city streets and the neon lights
See the train comin' round the bend
The train comin' round the bend

Once, she's goin' twice
She's gonna do it all up and down
She's goin' once, she's goin' twice
She's goin', train's comin' round the bend
You know the train's comin' round the bend

Hey, up and down, out of nowhere
Taking me back where I belong
I've been here once and I don't dig it tonight
The train's coming round the bend
The train's coming round the bend

Oooh Allright!
