Oh, Lord, oh no
It's nine o'clock in this ol' station
And my silver-linin' ride is right on time
And then I buy myself a one-way ticket
To somewhere else on down the line
And I see the other faces
Of a people that will never come home
And when I stare into the mirror, Mama
I see myself all alone
Oh, and did you ever stop to wonder (wonder)
'Bout the times that she laid by your side
When you know that I was right
And you finally realize
You took a left turn on a red light
Oh, oh!
Sun shines down on the desert
And it seems to make my life a haze
And I dream of my childhood sweetheart
And the freedom that I had in those days
Will I wake from all my dreamin'?
Will this boxcar always be my lonely home? Yeah!
Well, I don't know where I am
And I really don't give a damn
This crazy life of mine will soon be gone
Oh, and did you ever stop to wonder
About the times that she laid by your side
When you know that I was right
And you finally realize
You took a left turn on a red light
Whoa, whoa, oh!

Well, it's nine o'clock at this old station
Once again my ride is right on time
And as I buy myself another ticket, Lord
For somewhere else on down the line
Will I always be a rambler?
Will the ones I love always keep tellin' me
"You stare too long in the mirror, son
Someday you'll be too blind to see"
Oh, and now I'm stoppin' my wonderin' (wonder)
About the times that she laid by my side
Now I know that I was right
And I finally realize
I took a left turn on a red light
Whoa, whoa, oh!
