"Slow Train" lyrics

"Slow Train"

It's a slow, slow train
But it's moving on

I've got my ticket
Don't, don't pass me by
If I don't get on
Ooh I'll break down and cry
Only got one life
To live on this earth
Oh get me there
Won't you please, conductor, sir?

It's a slow, slow train
But it's moving on

Now everybody gets a ticket
You, you, and me
It's up to you to catch a ride
That's how it's gotta be
Everybody born, yeah
Has to prove he's a man
Take it easy on yourself
'Cause there's no helping hand

It's a slow, slow train
But it's moving on
It's a slow, slow train
But it's moving on
