Ride the Train
Artist: Abie Rottenberg
Album: Journeys 2
Come on and ride the train,
Step on board, take your ticket, no two are the same,
You’ll soon be going for a ride,
There’s nowhere to run, no place to hide,
You’re ridin’, ridin’, ridin’ on the train.
But you try to check you ticket,
And you don’t know what it means,
Will you get to sit on velvet and dine on fine cuisine.
Or is it your place to be upon a worn out wooden seat,
With a slice of old and crust bread,
Your only food to eat.
Come on and ride the train,
The doors are closed, the whistle’s blowing,
Now you must remain.
The locomotive’s on a roll,
There’s just some things you can’t control,
You’re ridin’, ridin’, ridin’ on the train.
So you ask an older passenger,
‘How long will this ride be?’
He says, ‘Sorry son, I can’t say, there is no gaurentee.
It might be the next station, we’ll be there in no time.
But maybe if you’re luckey,
You can stay till the end of the line.’
Then you take a walk all through the train,
Each box car one by one.
Most are filler with people saying, ‘This ride’s just for fun.
Why think about tomorrow, when you’ve got today instead?
Sit back, enjoy the view,
There’s miles and miles or rail ahead.’
Ride the train,
Come on, ride the train (x 2)
But one car seems so different,
Inhabited by few,
Who say there is no time to waste, We’re only passing through.
The choices that you male today, are all that’s gonna last.
This train is moving down the track,
And it’s moving awful fast.
Come on and ride the train,
Step on board, take your ticket, no two are the same,
You’ll soon be going for a ride,
There’s nowhere to run, no place to hide,
You’re ridin’, ridin’, ridin’ on the train.
