Train to Nowhere Songtext
von The Stone Coyotes

Standing on the platform
Staring down the track
I felt a shiver
When I heard that clickety-clack

Heard the cry of "All aboard"
The ancient whistle blow
I′ve been waiting here so long
I can't tell friend from foe

Oh - - -
I′ll meet you down the line
I'm on the train to nowhere
And it's right on time


The conductor was a blind man
And it caused me some concern
When he handed me my ticket
For the point of no return

He said, "You look a little worse for wear
I hate to call your bluff
But if you′re going to ride this line
You must be made of sterner stuff"

I begged the brakeman, "Stop this train"
He said, "But what′s the use?
You should know by now it's commonplace
For all hell to be breaking loose"

Then I heard my grandmother singing
"Hush - don′t you cry
You're my little piece of Heaven
Fallen down from the sky"
