Lyrics:
Well I broke down in E. St. LouisOn the Kansas City lineAnd I drunk up all my moneyThat I borrowed every timeAnd I fell down at the derbyAnd now the night's black as a crowIt was a train that took me away from hereBut a train can't bring me homeWhat made my dreams so hollowWas standing at the depotWith a steeple full of swallowsThat could never ring the bellAnd I come ten thousand miles awayWith not one thing to showWell it was a train that took me away from hereBut a train can't bring me homeI remember when I leftWithout bothering to packYou know I up and left withJust the clothes I had on my backNow I'm sorry for what I've doneAnd I'm out here on my ownWell it was a train that took me away fromHere but a train can't bring me home
