I'm singing your name like a meditation
I'm breaking your heart with no consolation
I'm paying no heed to our situation
I'm a runaway train
Ain't no use in conversation
'Cause darlin' I'm the source of your frustration
I've given you more than a demonstration
That I'm a runaway train
And if you feel you
Need somebody baby don't you call on me
I'll only leave you
Lying like a quarter on a railroad track
I won't look back
I can't look back
I'm a runaway train
Some might say that I'm a lonesome case
Others might say that I lost my way
If there's a god there'll be hell to pay
For this runaway train
And if you feel you
Need somebody baby don't you call on me
'Cause I'll only leave you
Lying like a quarter on a railroad track
I won't look back
I can't look back
