(Dierks Bentley)

Everytime I hear the whistle whine
From a lonesome locomotive, comin' down the line
It carries my mind away to another place in time
When train travelin' across the land was the only way to fly

Am I a fool to think it glamorous
Box-carring like a hobo, it must have been rough
But a simpler way of life is what it really means to me
When we weren't so dependent on money to be free

I hear you train, are you travelin' my way
Won't you let me ride your rails right back to yesterday
Who knows what I could see from that old time machine
But there you go again train travelin', There you go again train travelin'

I'm lyin' on a rotten wooden floor
Smell yesterday's whiskey here rattlin' at the door
A railroad man lookin' for me, I'm scared as I can be
I open my eyes and realize it's just another dream
