I remember when we were kids Takin' chances, all the crazy things we did We'd race our bikes beside the railroad tracks And chase that train like it was never comin' back Well I'm still chasin' that train Still chasin' that train... One by one, my friends all settled down Raisin' families with a house in town And though they laugh when we recall old times They look at me with disbelieving eyes Cause I'm still chasin' that train... Well, who'd have guessed that I would play this part Nothin's cured me of a restless heart Forever runnin' in the rain Still chasin' that train Twenty years have disappeared somehow The tracks are overgrown and rusted now But in my mind I still can hear the wail And in my heart I know when all else fails I will be still chasin' that train Still chasin' that train
