F5 C5 Pullin' out from the platform , there was no brass band. F5 C5 I pulled out from the platform , nobody raised a hand. G5 F5 And there were no tears of regret from my runaway train. Train, train, train, train. (break) F5 C5 Got no sand in my pocket, you know I ain't tied down. F5 C5 Ain't no sand in my pocket, never do sit down. G5 F5 C5 I'm just a cross-tie walker, where the freight trains run. Run, run, run, run. (break) F5 C5 If you see me a-comin', don't you waste my time. F5 C5 If you see me a-comin', don't you waste my time. G5 F5 C5 'Cause there's more miles between us than the Santa Fe Line. Run, run, run, run. (Hum first two lines and fade)
