"It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry" lyrics
(originally by Bob Dylan)
Riding on a mail train can't buy me no thrill
Well, I'm up all night, leaning on the windowsill
Well, if I die at the top of that hill
Yeah, if I don't make it you know my baby will
Don't the moon look good shining down through the trees
Don't the brave men look good, momma, flagging down the double E
Don't the sun look good, going down over the sea
Don't my gal look fine when she's coming after me
Now the wintertime is coming, the windows fill with frost
I went to tell everybody, could not get it across
That I want to be your lover, baby, don't wanna be your boss
Yeah, don't say I never warned you when your train gets lost
Well, I'm up all night, leaning on the windowsill
Well, if I die at the top of that hill
Yeah, if I don't make it you know my baby will
Don't the moon look good shining down through the trees
Don't the brave men look good, momma, flagging down the double E
Don't the sun look good, going down over the sea
Don't my gal look fine when she's coming after me
Now the wintertime is coming, the windows fill with frost
I went to tell everybody, could not get it across
That I want to be your lover, baby, don't wanna be your boss
Yeah, don't say I never warned you when your train gets lost
