Stuck in a rut on the home front Dirty working for my old man Tied on momma's apron strings My feet in the frying pan It's a one horse town Creepin' up and down the ceiling Late at night I pray the whistle blows Feel the rumble underneath me Train, train - that's my way out Get a ticket to face the music Train, train I'll never get the chance to go Turn wheels turn my heart is open To the great unknown Turn wheels turn why don't you take me Where the green grass grows But the train never stops Time never took so long We got way more bars than churches Lazy people with nothing to lose Sleeping dogs on the sidewalk And I'm howling at the moon There's a burned out light at the station No one even cares It's three o'clock in the morning But I'll still be waiting here Train, train - that's my way out Get a ticket to face the music Train, train I'll never get the chance to go Turn wheels turn my heart is open To the great unknown Turn wheels turn why don't you take me Where the green grass grows But the train never stops Time never took so long Turn wheels turn my heart is open To the great unknown Turn wheels turn why don't you take me Where the green grass grows Turn wheels turn Turn wheels turn But the train never stops Time never took so long Turn wheels turn my heart is open Turn wheels turn my heart is open
