I remember you when you was me
Oh what a beautiful sight
You'd cool it up or you'd cool it down
From some dizzy, dizzy height
I can still hear that rolling sound
Like a diesel in my head
Sometimes I wake and I think of you now
Forgetting that you're dead
I was born on a rolling train
Running when I hit the ground
I watch these wheels turning now
Nothing here, nothing left
Watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight go to town
This hotel room's like the wild, wild west
And there's strangers moving underground
I still have your photograph
It picks me up when I'm feeling down
Pull up a chair and you pour me one
Let's kick back and let it roll
There's nothing here and there's nothing left
But watching the daylight go to town
We'd get swept up caught up in a fight
You just couldn't let it go
I watch these wheels turning now
Nothing here, nothing left
Watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight go to town
Don't you fade away
Solo
Well I guess I'm walking right back home
Got to set this all down
Pull up a chair and you pour me two
Cos there's nothing here, nothing left
But watching the daylight turn around
Watching the daylight go to town
Watching this world spin around
Watching the daylight go to town
