All Aboard

I can feel the wheels are turning underneath my feet
 As I pull the shade down on my window seat
 Praying where I'm going is better than where I've been
 Then a stranger sits down as if he's right at home
 Touches me and says, "I see you're traveling alone
 And by the way, son, you forgot to say amen"
 He says, "I guess there's something here I need to explain
 I try to talk to everyone riding this train
 Some of them listen, but most don't pay me no mind"
 And the train keeps rolling
 And the world keeps turning
 All aboard, all aboard
 Everybody's gotta get on board

 Take that woman with the frown sitting 'cross the aisle
 With her briefcase open, nigh on 90 miles
 She never even noticed that lake back at Horseshoe Bend
 And that couple with the kids at the front of the car
 Fussing all the way 'bout some cookie jar
 I'm gonna ask them what they saw at their journey's end
 And there's a fellow I left sitting in the back
 Keeps a smile on his face through a paper sack
 Looking out the window, but he can't see past the pain
 And the train keeps rolling (the train keeps rolling)
 And the world keeps turning (the world keeps turning)
 All aboard, all aboard
 Everybody's gotta get on board

 Then the train slows down unexpectedly
 As I raise my blind, he slaps my knee
 Saying, "This is my stop, son, but you won't be traveling alone"
 I look out my window to wave him goodbye
 But there's nobody there, just a light in the sky
 I lose my breath and my blood runs cold as stone
 Then I feel the wheels turning underneath my feet
 But life looks different from my window seat
 Knowing where I'm going is better than where I've been
 And the train keeps rolling (the train keeps rolling)
 And the world keeps turning (the world keeps turning)
 All aboard, all aboard
 Everybody's gotta get on board

 I can feel the wheels a-turnin' underneath my feet
