I spent all day on this train riding
Riding around just to get away
Whenever I get wherever it takes me
I'll turn around and ride the other way

'Cause I'm just here to hear the whistle moan
Wherever it's going is where I'm gonna get gone

I stare at the window, watch the world go by
I take to the ground and I look to the sky
Across the mountains and over the plains
It don't matter it's all the same

'Cause I'm just here to hear the whistle moan
Wherever it's going is where I'm gonna get gone

I feel that steel run along the track
I feel the need to never look back
Whenever it gets to the end of the line
I got a feeling I'm going to feel fine

'Cause I'm just here to hear the whistle moan
Wherever it's going is where I'm gonna get gone
'Cause I'm just here to hear the whistle moan
Wherever it's going is where I'm gonna get gone
