Subject: RE: Train of life From: Allan C. Date: 07 Apr 04 - 08:33 AM Might it be the same as the song in the DT called "Life's Railway to Heaven"? |
Subject: RE: Train of life From: Allan C. Date: 07 Apr 04 - 08:39 AM On the other hand, you could be referring to Roger Miller's song by that name. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Train of Life From: Jim Dixon Date: 08 Apr 04 - 12:31 AM Copied from http://www.lyricsdepot.com/roger-miller/train-of-life.html TRAIN OF LIFE (Roger Miller) I sit alone at my table And watch all the others have fun. I'm tired of sitting on the sidetrack, Watching the main line run. I'm tired of having no future, Living on things that I've done. I'm tired of sitting on the sidetrack, Watching the main line run. Train, train, oh let me-e-e-e ride. Don't leave me, train of life, train, train. I got no one to call me their darling, To hug me and call me their hon. I'm tired of sitting on the sidetrack, Just watching the main line run. I'm tired of having no future, Living on things that I've done. I'm tired of sitting on the sidetrack, Just watching the main line run. Train, train, oh let me-e-e-e ride Don't leave me, train of life, train, train Train, train [Recorded by Roger Miller on his LP "Words and Music," 1966.] |
