I was ridin' on a train to Austin, Texas,
When a very lovely lady sat next to me.
When she got up to eat,
She asked if I would hold her seat.
I was more than happy to,
And now there's more I'd like to do.

I wanna kiss her but, she won't let me.
I wanna whisper sweet nothin's in her (r)ear.
I wanna hold her behind...closed doors and more.
I wanna kiss her but, she won't let me.

When she returned, she said she was an actress.
She showed me an album of pictures of her opening, which she'd been sittin' on.
She seemed as sweet as she could be,
But I could clearly see
She was the kinda girl who stole men's hearts,
Then wrecked 'em (r_____).

I wanna kiss her but, she won't let me.
I wanna whisper sweet nothin's in her (r)ear.
I wanna hold her behind...closed doors and more.
I wanna kiss her but, she won't let me.

Well, I'll never forget that train ride down to Austin.
We shared a seat, and we shared our tales (tails).
But as my heart tries to leave her behind,
Regrets are all I find,
'Cause I'd hoped I'd get that girl
In the end.

I wanna kiss her but, she won't let me.
I wanna whisper sweet nothin's in her (r)ear.
I wanna hold her behind...closed doors and more.
I wanna kiss her but,
I wanna kiss her but,
I wanna kiss her but,
She won't let me.
