She's sitting on the train, the train's gonna to leave Bags in her hand, tears on her sleeve Banging on the window with all of my might But she won't look to the left or the right We had a fight and it wasn't pretty Now she's leaving, ain't it a pity Going to wait tables, down in the city Hold that red light one more minute 6:18's got my baby in it Train don't leave, heart don't break Train don't leave, heart don't break Mister guard, get out of that van Wave that flag, I'm a lonely man Mister driver, hand off the throttle Or I'll shoot my luck, lose my bottle One more minute, I can talk her right 'round Get her size sixes back on the ground Train whistle is a lonely sound I didn't mean the things I told you Empty arms waiting to hold you Train don't leave, heart don't break Train don't leave, heart don't break She's getting off the train, she'd mad and sore She pokes at my nose with the old southpaw Swings and misses, turns right 'round I catch her in time and we fall to the ground She's got tears but she's laughing as well We kiss like fools, you never can tell How a little minute can cast its spell We never want to see this station again It's a sad old place for lonely men Train, train, get down the track Hell, you can leave and never come back
