Lyrics:

He sits alone in one small room
Of a shabby railroad flat
He reads his yellowed clippings
Folds them up and puts them back

He knows that
up good when it's nice and dark
with a railroad flat and monkey called belvedere
I like it down here
an acrobat, railroad flat
Wish my heart had a safety hat
Oh my broken heart
Stop
Can you heal that
I hope I don't suffer
Eating my last supper
Leonardo
Not
the hair I had
In revenge
I laid myself on the railroad flat
But my God I'm dumb
My killer train
still hasn't come
Of all the things
I need to believe
This
all your dollars & cents
Take them away to the railroad
Make them as flat as the words that I sing
'Chus I'm not looking out for you
No more
My compass
I got a rhythm seated in my head
Same kind of rhythm that you get
When you're riding on a Santa Fe flat bed

Got a little tingle that's tingling
Down
and tip their hats
I told you don't mess with them boys
In McAnally Flats

Now, Boxcar Johnson got his nickname
Stealing Post Toasties off a railroad train
Pushin' rhymes underground like moonshine
With jump like juke joints
Ridin' like old 'lacs
Down like 4 flats
Shine like gold grills
Curls
Of a boy who's raised by the railroad line

The sound of a whistle at the crossin' road
And the tanks and the trucks and the tractors on the flatcar load
gravity take hold
A snap - and you fall flat

Standing right there on the sidewalk
It's like you're still around
Skipping on the railroad tracks
You never
the dogs to run where the shade has been
Across the railroad tracks lay your silver down
Find it smooth and flat, stars for your crown

In the blue
Well it's Friday evening about a half past five,
Wait a minute here I can't believe my eyes,
I looked up yonder by the railroad track,
There goes
and blue
I'm going to leave you mama
When the train comes rolling through

No money in my pocket
I'm roving around so flat
And soon I'll be strolling
Down
The rock of my soul went to church on Sunday
The rock of my soul went to work on Monday
Clean across the levy by the railroad tracks
The other
to a railroad track
Thought the wheels would roll it flat
Look over my shoulder, turn around baby, you're back

Hey yeah, baby, you're back
Look over my
no, please don't wear those

Use my razor to shave your legs or eat crackers in bed
Stomp the poodle 'til it's flat
You can even shove a six-inch
Each lazy hour

What a good life
Lying laid back
Like an old railroad bum by the track
What a good life
Living outdoors
Lie in the grass and chew
of the railroad track
Like Ginsberg, Corso and Kerouac
Like Louis and Jimmy and Buddy and all the rest 
Well, it might not be the thing to do 
But I'm sticking
made it town in no time flat
But you can't go slow with a Christmas load coming down the railroad tracks

When he pulled into the station and he
Hear the whistle blow far off in the still night without stars
See the tracks laid flat with a hammer's might
They're the spike driver's scars
When I was a young boy
Roamin' on the railroad tracks
Put copper pennies on the rails
Locomotive come and squash 'em flat
We'd run to fetch 'em
mother and her light newborn
Curling each other flat and tight into our tangled sound

Muted howl
Song of blue flame
The brilliant headed silhouettes
Down along the railroad track
I ran into my old friend Jack
He was dressed in his Sunday best
But his face was mad and his eyes was a daze

He said
knew you'd break me down and leave me flat
I saw it coming but I turned my back
I feel like a nickel on the railroad track
Here comes the Blue Train
