Lyrics
Runaway Train
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Headlights on the ceiling as she pulls into the drive
She never says she's coming and she never says goodbye
She's gonna bring the sunshine and she's gonna bring the rain
It's like I'm standing at the station and I'm waiting on a runaway train
When I was a young'un, my momma used to pray
That I'd find me a Christian girl and settle down someday
But the devil's at the front door and she's calling out my name
It's like I'm standing at the station and I'm waiting on a runaway train
Runaway train coming down the track
Runaway train and don't come back
Yeah I know what she's doing but right now I don't care
She can be Delilah here to cut off all my hair
Woman's got a hold on me, that I just can't explain
It's like I'm standing at the station and I'm waiting on a runaway train
Runaway train coming down the track
Runaway train and don't come back
In the morning when I wake and find that woman gone
I will swear this time that I am finally moving on
Deep down in my heart I'll know nothing's gonna change
And I'll be standing at the station and waiting on a runaway train
Runaway train coming down the track
Runaway train and don't come back
