Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
I broke down in East St. Louis
Kansas City line
I drank up all my money
That I borrowed every time
Then I fell down at the derby
Nights black as ink rolled
It was a train got me here
No train gonna take me home
What made my dreams so hollow
Standing at that depot
Steeple full of black birds
That could never ring the bell
I come ten thousand miles
I got nothing to show
It was a train got me here
No train gonna get me home
ย
'Member when I left
I didn't even pack
I just up and went with nothing
But this dress here on my back
I am sorry for the things I've done
I'm out here on my own
It was a train got me here
No train gonna get me home
Train got me here
There ain't no kind of train
Ever gonna get me home
