Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Train I ride, sixteen coaches long Well that long black train got my baby and gone Train train, comin' 'round, 'round the bend Train train, comin' 'round the bend Well it took my baby, but it never will again (no, not again) Train train, comin' down, down the line Train train, comin' down the line Well it's bringin' my baby, 'cause she's mine all, all mine (she's mine, all, all mine) |

I remember long ago
How I wondered where I'd go While the blizzards, cold wind and snow Pounded outside my window. California sunset Going down in the West All the colors in the sky Kiss another day goodbye. Land of beauty, space and light Land of promise, land of might You're my home now and it's true California, here's to you. California sunset Going down in the West All the colors in the sky Kiss another day goodbye. California sunset Going down in the West All the colors in the sky Kiss another day goodbye. The golden state! |

Said the condor to the preying mantis
We're gonna lose this place just like we lost Atlantis Brother we got to go sooner than you know The Gypsy told my fortune, she said that nothin' showed. Who put the bomb on the sacred altar? Why should we die if it comes our way? Why should we care about a little button Being pushed by someone we don't even know? Well. I wish I was an Aztec, Or a runner in Peru I would build such beautiful buildings To house the chosen few Like an Inca from Peru. If you want to get high, build a strong foundation Sink those pylons deep now and reach for the sky If you want to get lost in the jungle rhythm Get down on the ground and pretend you're swimmin'. If you want to put ice in the lava river First you must climb, then you must stand and shiver Brother we got to go sooner than you know The Gypsy told my fortune, the Gypsy told my fortune, The Gypsy told my fortune, she said that nothing showed Well I wish I was an Aztec, Or a runner in Peru I would build such beautiful buildings To house the chosen few Like an Inca from Peru. Said the condor to the preying mantis We're gonna lose this place just like we lost Atlantis Brother we got to go sooner than you know The Gypsy told my fortune, the Gypsy told my fortune, The Gypsy told my fortune, she said that nothin' showed. Who put the bomb on the sacred altar? Why should we die if it comes our way? Why should we care about a little button Being pushed by someone we don't even know? Well. I wish I was an Aztec, Or a runner in Peru I would build such beautiful buildings To house the chosen few Like an Inca from Peru. I feel sad, but I feel happy As I'm coming back to home There's a bridge across the river That I have to cross alone Like a skipping rolling stone Like an Inca. |

Why are you growin' up so fast
My boy? Oh, you'd better take your time. Why are you growin' up so fast My son? Almost time to live your dream My boy. Oh, you'd better take your time. Almost time to make some plans My son. Vacation gone, school is out, Summer ends year in year out. Oh, you'd better take your time My boy. I thought we had just begun. Why are you growin' up so fast My son? Vacation gone, school is out, Summer ends year in year out. Why are you growin' up so fast My boy? Why are you growin' up so fast My son? |

Old ways, it sure is hard to change 'em
Come what may It's hard to teach a dinosaur a new trick Lately I've been finding out I'm set in my ways Old ways, can be your ball and chain. Oh, I'm gonna stop that grass And give up all this drinking Really gonna make my life last Clean up my whole way of living Up until the party last night I was a different man But old ways got their way again. The economy was getting so bad I had to lay myself off Well, working was a habit I had So I kept showin' up anyway Then one day things turned around I got my back pay Old ways comin' through again. I got old ways. |

Once an angel
Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be It's been six years now Since my ring slipped on your finger And those years have made A better man out of me. Once an angel Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be. There've been times when I've treated you so badly I've done things I know You'll never understand. But you take me back Turn your eyes towards the window Where you hide the tears You don't want me to see. Once an angel Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be. Once an angel Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be. You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be. |

Transformer man, transformer man
You run the show Remote control Direct the action with the push of a button You're a transformer man Power in your hand Transformer man, transformer man. Transformer man, transformer man Sooner or later you'll have to see The cause and effect So many things still left to do But we haven't made it yet Every morning when I look in your eyes I feel electrified by you. Oh yes. Transformer man, transformer man Transformer man Still in command Your eyes are shining on a beam Through the galaxy of love Transformer man, transformer man Unlock the secrets Let us throw off the chains that Hold you down. Transformer man, transformer man Sooner or later you'll have to learn The cause and effect So many things still left to do But we haven't made it yet Every morning when I look in your eyes I feel electrified by you. Oh yes. Transformer man, transformer man Transformer man, transformer man |

Out on the trans-Canada highway
There was a girl hitchhiking with her dog Fireflies buzzin' round her head Like candles in the fog. He was three miles down the road Tryin' to stay up, but he knew that he couldn't She was looking for a ride through the night But out there, who wouldn't. They were bound for glory Bound for living on the edge They were bound for each other Like two comets heading for a bed. She had a new way of living New way of looking at life He had an '84 International and two kids He left back home with his wife. He was tired of writin' letters to himself And living in the dark She was open to suggestions And some say she had a broken heart. He had everything he wanted 'Til it all turned out to be a job One fallen asleep trucker And a girl hitchhiking with her dog. They were bound for glory Bound for living on the edge They were bound for each other Like two comets heading for a bed. She had a new way of living New way of looking at life He had an '84 International and two kids He left back home with his wife. Out on the trans-Canada highway The sun came climbing up the cab By the time it hit the window they were wakin' up From what little sleep they had. When that heat hit the blankets They were looking for love at second sight Just starin' in each others' eyes Findin' it in the mornin' light. They were bound for glory Bound for living on the edge They were bound for each other Like two blankets layin' on a bed. She had a new way of living New way of looking at life He had an '84 International and two kids He left back home with his wife. |
