It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry - Live at the Newport Folk Festival, Newport, RI - July 1965
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 ghost look good, baby Bein' where he wants to be Don't the sun look good Goin' down over the sea? Don't my gal look fine When she's comin' after me? ♪ Well, I just been to the baggage car Where the engineer's been tossed I stomped out 40 compasses God knows what they cost Well, I wanna be your lover, baby I don't wanna be your boss I can't help it, if this dream gets lost
