The California Zephyr

Take me down to Union Station
In my black coat put a pink carnation
Kiss me twice for love and luck
In my hands place your last few bucks
Honey babe I'm leaving you

I slept in your bed you took my money
I baked your bread with milk and honey
It's on the wind what did for pleasure
Gonna catch that train, the California Zephyr
Honey babe I'm leaving you

I'm headed out west to the free for all
And if my luck don't change I'll have your baby this fall
I thought I took every measure
Gonna catch that train, the California Zephyr
Honey babe I'm leaving you

Won't you listen to the train coming down the tracks
It carries me away won't carry me back
I know I'm not the one you treasure
Gonna catch that train, the California Zephyr
Honey babe I'm leaving you
All aboard the California Zephyr
