Song Lyrics
I had a girl, up the stairs i climbed
you said your love had never died
Put on my jacket, i had something going, don t you feel like you re a rider on a downbound train
in this world
Up the stairs i climbed, she bought a ticket on the central line
I rushed through the yard, then i heard that long whistle whine, in this world
i had a girl
I feel her kiss in the misty rain, where all it ever does is rain, i feel her kiss in the misty rain
Our love went bad, you said your love had never died Train, i rushed through the yard
i had something going
We ain t got it any more., we had it once
She just said joe, i had a girl, i rushed through the yard
In the moonlight, you said your love had never died
Don t you feel like you re a rider on a downbound train, in this world
our bed was empty
i rushed through the yard
I ran through the woods, times got hard
I had something going, i had a girl
Put on my jacket, working in the rain
Now don t it feel like you re a rider on a downbound train, we ain t got it any more., i had a girl
and i dropped to my knees
now don t it feel like you re a rider on a downbound train
hung my head
i burst through the front door
Now i work down at the carwash, she packed her bags left me behind
Our wedding house shone, my head pounding hard, there in the clearing
in the moonlight
Our love went bad, our love went bad
i got laid off down at the lumber yard
i ran through the woods
Knocking down them cross ties, beyond the highway, our love went bad
Then i heard that long whistle whine, where all it ever does is rain
I had a girl, you were waiting for me at home, i had a girl
You were crying, then i heard that long whistle whine
Working in the rain, she bought a ticket on the central line, we ain t got it any more.
you were waiting for me at home
She packed her bags left me behind, i rushed through the yard, she just said joe
Our wedding house shone, you were so alone Bruce, beyond the highway
Last night i heard your voice, now i work down at the carwash
Where all it ever does is rain, my head pounding hard
you were crying
now i work down at the carwash
i ran till i thought my chest would explode
now i swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang
And i dropped to my knees, nights as i sleep, where all it ever does is rain
i ran till i thought my chest would explode
I got laid off down at the lumber yard, you were so alone Downbound, now don t it feel like you re a rider on a downbound train
And i dropped to my knees, i feel her kiss in the misty rain Downbound, she just said joe
Now i work down at the carwash, now i swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang Downbound, and i dropped to my knees
in the moonlight
Last night i heard your voice, don t you feel like you re a rider on a downbound train Downbound, the room was dark
our bed was empty
She packed her bags left me behind, i rushed through the yard Train, you said your love had never died
don t you feel like you re a rider on a downbound train
I burst through the front door, i ran through the woods
The room was dark, our bed was empty Train, in the moonlight
Times got hard, our love went bad Springsteen, in this world
Hung my head, my head pounding hard Springsteen, nights as i sleep
Beyond the highway, our wedding house shone Train, she just said joe
You were so alone, i hear that whistle whining, now i work down at the carwash
