I heard a train calling Through the middle of the night I heard the whistle And the mercy of the wheels It's a hand to mouth existence In a mouth to nothing world I was longing For the way I used to feel I'd like to catch a train That could go back in time That could make a lot of stops Along the way I would go to see me Father With the eyes he left behind I would go for all the words I'd like to say And I'd take along a sandwich And a picture of my girl And show them all That I made out ok I heard a train calling Through the middle of the night And I wondered if I Should have gotten on 'Cause a train knows where it's going And when it's time to go And that it looks best When it's already gone I heard a train calling Through the middle of a dream And I wandered through the weeds As it went by Oh the trains they have the numbers The nicknames and the nights They know it's ok To run away and cry I'd like to catch a train That could go back in time That could make a lot of stops Along the way I would go to see me Father With the eyes he left behind I would go for all the words I'd like to say And I'd take along a sandwich And a picture of my girl And show them all That I made out ok I heard a train calling Through the middle of the night I heard the whistle And the mercy of the wheels
