It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry
Lyrics
Well, I ride on a mailtrain, baby Can't buy a thrill ♪ Well, I've been up all night, baby Leanin' on the windowsill ♪ Well, if I die On top of the hill And if I don't make it You know my baby will ♪ Don't the moon look good, mama Shinin' through the trees? Don't the brakeman look good, mama Flagging down the "Double E?" Don't the sun look good Goin' down over the sea? Don't my gal look fine When she's comin' after me? ♪ ♪ Now the wintertime is coming The windows are filled with frost I went to tell everybody But I could not get across Well, I wanna be your lover, baby I don't wanna be your boss Don't say I never warned you When your train gets lost
