That sad old train   Sleeping on an old rusty track   She was from another time   Gone with the wind like the smoke from that ole stack   She brought smiles and waving hands   As she whistled by a sleepy town   It was once the way to go   Just a shiny nickel and you were homeward bound.      Chorus:   I’ve seen better days   Like that sad old train   On an old abandoned track   When you were holding me   I knew someday you’d leave   Like that old train   You won’t be coming back.      She gently rumbled in the sunshine   As she carried home the mail   Her letters keeping lovers waiting   Friendly little boys placing pennies on her rails   I can relate to that old train   Since you left me all alone again   No one ever comes around   Once upon time we were riding on the wind.      Chorus:   I’ve seen better days   Like that old sad train   On an old forgotten track   When you were holding me   I knew someday you’d leave   Like that old train   You won’t be coming back   Like that old train   Never coming back...
