Lyrics:

I took the cannonball down to the ocean
Across the desert from sea to shining sea
I rode a latter that climbs across the nation
Fifty million feet of earth between the buried and me

'Hey how do you do?'
She said, 'Hey how do you do?'

She buys a ticket 'cause it's cold where she comes from
She climbs abord 'cause she's scard of getting older in the snow
Love is a ghost train rumbling through the darkness
Hold on to me darling I've got nowhere else to go

'How do you do?'
She said, 'How do you do?'

I took the cannonball down to the ocean
Watched the deisel disappear beneath the tumbling waves
Love is a ghost train howling on the radio
'Remember everything.' she said, 'when only memory remains.'

'How do you do?'
She said, 'How do you do?'
