"The Train I'm On" lyrics

"The Train I'm On"

If you see the train I'm on
Wave to me goodbye
But don't you shed no tears on account of me
You know I hate to see you cry

Sometimes a train sounds lonesome
Sometimes it sounds soft and low
But every time I hear an old train whistle blow
It always makes me wanna get up and go

If you ever think about me
Should I ever cross your mind
Remember I'm a-coming back for you, oh
It's only a matter of time

If you see the train I'm on

But don't you shed no tears on account of me
Oh, I hate to see you cry
