Nobody Cares About the Railroads Anymore Songtext
von Harry Nilsson

When we got married back in 1944
We′d board that Silverliner below Baltimore
Trip to Virginia on a sunny honeymoon
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore

We'd tip that porter for a place of our own
Then send a postcard to your mom and dad back home
Mmm, it did something to ya when you′d hear that "All aboard"
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore

Woo-ee, woo-oo-ee, woo-ee
Woo-ee, woo-oo-ee, woo-ee, ee-ee-ee

We had a daughter and you oughta see her now
She has a boyfriend who looks just like my gal Sal
And when they're married they won't need us anymore
They′ll board an airplane and fly away from Baltimore


Woo-ee, woo-oo-ee, woo-ee
Woo-ee, woo-oo-ee, woo-ee, ee-ee-ee, oh

When we got married back in 1944
We′d board that Silverliner below Baltimore
Trip to Virginia on a sunny honeymoon
Mmm, nobody cares about the railroads anymore

La, la, la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la, bah-bye
(La, la, we got married way back in 1944)
La, la, la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la, don't cry
(We′d board that Silverliner below Baltimore)
Mmm, did something to ya when you'd hear that "All aboard"
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore

La, la, la, la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la-lie
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa, whoa-wah
Dee-dee-dee-doo-pee, bop-dee
