I Won't Give Up My Train

I pulled into Memphis thirteen minutes early
First time in two weeks
There’s where she came to meet me
As I stepped down off old 51 and needed sleep
And the baby’s overdue, I know you need some things
But the more that we discuss it, it’s the same
Long train rolling, got a feelin' and I’m knowin'
She’s not waitin' for me
These rails keep gettin' longer
This feeling’s gettin' stronger
It won’t let me be
Yeah, I love my woman fire and rain
But I won’t give up my train
Baby came in April while I was in Chicago in the pouring rain
With four flat cars, a rusty tanker, three box cars
And an empty sack of mail
And though I’ll be lonely some nights I know
There’s just no other way to explain
Long train rollin', got a feelin' and I’m knowin'
She’s not waitin' for me
These rails keep gettin' longer, this feelin’s gettin' stronger
It won’t let me be
I love my woman fire and rain
But I won’t give up my train
Long train rollin', got a feelin' and I’m knowin'
She’s not waitin' for me
These rails keep gettin' longer
This feelin’s gettin' stronger
It won’t let me be
Though I love my woman fire and rain
I won’t give up my train
Oh, I love my woman fire and rain
I won’t give up my train
