Текст песни Tom Waits - Train Song

Capo First Fret

Well I broke down in East Saint Louis
On the Kansas City line
and I drunk up all my money
that I borrowed every time

and I fell down at the derby
and now the night's black as a crow
It was a train that took me away from here
but a train can't bring me home

What made my dreams so hollow
I was standing there at the depot
with a steeple full of swallows
that could never ring the bell

and I come ten thousand miles away
with not one thing to show
well it was a train that took me away from here
but a train can't bring me home

Interlude:    -  -   -  -   -   -   - 

I remember when I left
without bothering to pack
you know I up and left with
nothin' but the clothes I had on my back

now I'm sorry for what I've done
and I'm out here on my own
well it was a train that took me away from
here but a train can't bring me home 
it must've been a train that took me away from here
but a train can't bring me ... can't bring me home
