TIME TO GO by Larry Penn Whistle on the midnight train sounds sweet tonight. It’s calling me the way an old-time lover might And every time the whistle moans it says to me: I’ll take you back to where your soul is free. Something about the way the lady sings tonight Her raucous melody warms up the hobo’s night And I have not felt this way since I was 17 Once upon a time when steam was king. CHORUS: Come all your worn-out railroad bums It’s time to go, it’s time to go, it’s time to go Come all you worn-out railroad bums, get up in a row A-travelin' back to where your soul is free Somewhere in the murky night that whistle wails I swear it’s callin’ me come on and ride the rails It’s tellin’ me to leave my callused things behind It’s tellin’ me it’ll take me back in time. CHORUS One by one my friends have caught that westbound ride They’re waiting by the river for me to come No, you don’t have to worry what’s become of me I’m travelin’ back to where my soul is free. CHORUS We’re travelin' back to where our souls are free
