Staring down the double line We're flowing off behind I'll never see your face no more I left you back there on that shore We had our chance It slipped away Don't call my name There ain't no brakeman on this train There ain't no brakeman on this train There ain't no engineer To pull the throttle back It's full steam up ahead Or down the windy track There ain't no way To turn around From all the pain There ain't no brakeman on this train I'm not saying that You were wrong for play to win Watch what you're doing now Watch what you're doing now The things that you throw away Won't come again We sat down at the station You were trying to decide Was I your destination Or just one stop on the ride? We made mistakes Now we're paying Can't turn back There ain't no brakeman on this train There ain't no brakeman on this train There ain't no brakeman on this train No brakeman on this train On this train I said this train No brakeman on this train On this train On this train No brakeman on this train This train Right this train Right this train
