Lyrics for Train

A quarter after two Sittin' in my car, watchin' Waitin' on a train Ninety seven flat cars Loaded down with troop, trucks and tanks Rollin' by I'm twenty one And I'm scared as hell I quit school I was healthy as a horse Because of all that I'll be the first one to die in a war The whole damn town was sleepin' Dreamin' the same dream Radio was playin' Roger McWilliams singin' "To each and every thing There's a time and a season" I'm twenty one And I'm scared as hell I quit school I was healthy as a horse Because of all that I'll be the first one to die in a war Yes I have no right to say We all die anyway An' I'd just like to know Where does my time go? What for? What for? A quarter after two Sittin' in my car, watchin' Waitin' on a train Ninety seven flat cars Loaded down with troop, trucks and tanks Rollin' by
