LYRICS FOR "(Waiting for) the Ghost Train"
A straw headed woman And a barrel chested man A pocket full of posies With a hat brim full of sand
Ooh, waiting for the train that never comes
A dog chasing the tumbleweeds Across the sandy floor That drift along the platform Through the ticket office door
Ooh, waiting for the train that never comes Ooh, waiting for the train that never comes
But don't tell me there's nothing coming You don't fool me I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks Set them free and I hear them
It's black and white don't try to hide It's black and white don't try to hide
The station master's writing With a piece of orange chalk A hundred cancellations Still no one wants to walk
Keep the hungry children From the skeletons in the back Paid to keep an eye out For the gypsy caravan
Ooh, waiting for the train that never comes Ooh, waiting for the train that never comes
I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks Set them free and I hear them
It's black and white don't try to hide It's black and white don't try to hide It's black and white don't try to hide It's black and white don't try to hide
It's black and white, don't try It's black and white, don't try It's black and white don't try to hide It's black and white don't try to hide
And I hear them It's black and white don't try to hide It's black and white don't try to hide
