BORN TO BE LONESOME by Jim Gaudet

There's a train out in the yard,
You can hear the engine moan
It's callin' all the lonely hearts
It's their only ticket home
I'm standing on the platform got my hat down over my eyes
someone's waving me aboard but I just can't decide
Cause I was born to be lonesome, I was born to be blue
and it ain't lookin good this, getting over you

This train ain't got no tracks, no rear view mirror no,
cause it won't look back
It's got no schedules like them Amtrak trains
won't leave the station till it's pourin'rain, rain , rain

There's no conductor, there's no engineer,
no ticket to be punched, don't need that stuff 'round here
They'll never build a Taxi no, they'll never build a bus
That can roll away my troubles just the way that this train does

Cause I was born to be lonesome, I was born to be blue
and it ain't lookin good this, getting over you
No it ain't lookin good this, getting over you
No it ain't lookin good this, getting over you
