Locomotive

A reckless heart was beatin'
In that restless girl of mine
And I was thinkin' that she'd be alright

That train has been around
And now it finally crossed her mind
And the midnight run was rollin' right on time
It was rollin', rollin' right on time

It was a lo-locomotive
Well, even if it were a bull
She would have rode it
To get out of here, she didn't care

It was a lo-locomotive
It would have been a car
Could have been a plane
Just so happened to be the midnight train

Those mighty wheels will rumble
As they pass the hobo jungle
And I bet he's wishin'
Now that he had stayed

I never should have let her
Guess I should have known her better
And I would if it wasn't for that train
If it wasn't, wasn't for that train
For that train, for that train

It was a lo-locomotive
Well, even if it were a bull
She would have rode it
To get out of here, she didn't care

It was a lo-loco motive
It would have been a car
Could have been a plane
Just so happened to be the midnight train

She never really left me
She just left this one horse town
She hit the track and she won't be back
To stand on common ground

It was a lo locomotive
Well, even if it were a bull
She would have rode it
To get out of here, she didn't care

It was a lo locomotive
It would have been a car
Could have been a plane
Just so happened to be the midnight train
