Freight Train

My heart is like a freight train
Putting on hard miles, carrying a load
My heart is like a freight train
And this railroad is the only home that it knows

Are you just another station
Am I just another train
At your gates I unload all my freight
And then wait for you to load me up again
But tonight will find me rolling
bowling down that seaboard line
Loaded down and bound for glory
Burning diesel through the night

My heart is like a freight train
Putting on hard miles, carrying a load
My heart is like a freight train
And this railroad is the only home that it knows

Guess we should have seen it coming
But we're all bound to crash some time
But when steel meets steel
There ain't no pain to feel
Just get back on track and try to leave that wreck behind
No one chose the track they travel
We all just roll on down the line
They say it takes train to carry all this pain
They say it takes a train to cry

My heart is like a freight train
Putting on hard miles, carrying a load
My heart is like a freight train
And this railroad is the only home that it knows

I could carry you the distance
If you could just learn to hold on
But when steel meets steel
The only thing that's real
Is the hard gleam of the engine as she whistles through the dawn
Now I'm iron and combustion
The sharp taste of cocaine keeps my engineer on time
Loaded down and bound for glory
Lord knows I'm coming but I won't get home tonight

My heart is like a freight train
Putting on hard miles, carrying a load
My heart is like a freight train
And this railroad is the only home that it knows

My heart is like a freight train
Putting on hard miles, carrying a load
My heart is like a freight train
And this railroad is the only home that it knows
