As I for the whistle, lie awake and wait the railroad didn't run so near 'Cause the rattle and clatter of that old fast Keeps on music in my ear, go bum again, go bum again, ooh
Hear the whistle blow, hear the whistle Clickety clack, clack, the wheels are saying to the railroad track Well, if you go, you can't come back, well if you go, you can't back Well if you go, you can't come back, if you go, you can't come If you go, you come back
misheard byJCvP It's not "pulse are beatin' It's "pulse a-beatin" And there is NO EXPLICIT LANGUAGE. In song, "bum" means a person who doesn't work for a living, and… See all Well, I wouldn't give a nickel for the bum I use to be Work as hard as any man in I got a pretty gal, she the world of me Man be a fool to let her down, go bum again, go bum again, ooh
Hear the whistle blow, hear the whistle Clickety clack, clack, the wheels are saying to the railroad track Well, if you go, you can't come back, well if you go, you can't come Well if you go, you can't come back, if you go, you can't come If you go, you can't back
So every I listen, wonder if it's late In my I'm ridin' on that train I feel my pulse are beatin' with that old freight And the Lord I'm just a bum again, go bum again, go bum again, ooh
Hear the whistle blow, hear the whistle Clickety clack, clickety clack, the wheels are saying to the railroad Well, if you go, you can't come back, well if you go, you come back if you go, you can't come back, if you go, you can't come back If you go, you can't back
