I saw her there from across the street She was dressed in black And when she moved she moved to a beat Like a Cadillac She rode a train, train train train A train of gold She was a woman of suspicious ways Never saw daylight And in her room she sat and passed the days And she'd creep out at night She rode a train, train train train Train of gold Train of gold, train of gold It took me so long to find out I was wrong Now I wait for her in the night Looked through a window saw a velvet sky A shade of green A violin was playing soft and sweet Like it was a dream She rode a train, train train train Train of gold Train of gold, train of gold It took me so long to find out I was wrong Now I wait for her in the night Train of gold, train of gold I don't believe her, it just couldn't be her I can't get it out of my mind She rode a train, train train train Train of gold She rode a train, train train train Train of gold Train, train of gold Train, train of gold
