Right Train, Wrong Track - Non LP B-Side

The train was leaving at ten after ten
I got to the station just in time to check in
I've been luggin' my bags all around
I'm trying hard to never knock people down
But I see I left a few on the ground
And as the train pulls away
I can hear the conductor say

Right track, wrong train (right track, wrong train)
Right track, wrong, train (right track, wrong train)
I'm not to blame (not to blame)
Right track, wrong train, train

They read my ticket, it said going nowhere
Everybody had the same tattooed face
All the women and men just dressed in lace
Oh, I gotta get out of this place
I should got off before
The engineer locked the door

Right track, wrong train (right track, wrong train)
Right track, wrong train (right track, wrong train)
I'm not to blame (not to blame)
Right track, wrong train
Train, train, train, hey!

Hey, that's a neat tattoo you're wearing
By the way, where'd you get it?
Uh, huh!
Say, is this an express train?
Uh, huh!
Snack bar? Uh, huh!
Uh, huh!

Something is happening so familiar to me
Is this the Outer Limits like on TV?
Another empty town fading to gray
Another open home sign on the way
Have a cup of coffee, have a nice day (hey!)
And as the train pushes off
We're headed for Babylon
Oh, no!

Right track, wrong train, woah
(Right track, wrong train)
Right track, wrong train (right track, wrong train)
Right track, wrong train (right track, wrong train)
Right track, wrong train

On the wrong train, on the right track
We don't know if she'll ever come back

Something is happening so familiar to me
Is this the Outer Limits like on TV?
Have a cup of coffee, have a nice day (hey!)
Right train (right track, wrong train)
