(My) Baby's on a Train

I sure hope my baby's on this train

Waitin' for the station doors to open up up at ten
So I can see my baby in the rain
I'm waitin' for these gates to never slam again
And I sure hope my baby's on this train
I sure hope my baby comes again

I'm waiting for a cinder, up and down my tracks
Green signals for my baby all say "Go"
I'm waitin' 'til her tunnel wraps around my back
So I can fill my baby for the road
So I can feel my baby letting go

It's been too long since I heard my baby come
It's been a gold watch since I felt her make me squeal
Too many years since my baby shivered some
I can only feel her quiver in my dreams

I sure hope she's riding on this train
I sure hope my baby's on this train

Waitin' for the coal of her fire box to glow
I can feel the pressure steaming on her skin
I'm on the siding now the points are gliding slow
I sure hope my baby waves me in
I sure hope my baby shaves her skin

(refrain)

I'm waiting 'til she rides me, ties across my bed
The rhythm of the rails is driving slow
Smoking fire bellows, she blows around my head
And the rate this train is rolling baby go
The way this horse is pumping oh no

(refrain/coda)
