Train Comes 'Round Songtext
von Oppera

With my ear pressed to the ground
I′m already laying down
When the train comes 'round

Living on the gutter street
Standing on South Beach
Microwave dinner for two

Dog food casserole
Landlord′s an asshole
Ten days overdue

Got no AC
Clothes ain't BC
What am I supposed to do?
So grandma's ring
I′d sell my thing
Just to do what I wanna do

So don′t make a sound
Turn the music down
And watch Mary go 'round


I say
With my ear pressed to the ground
I′m already laying down
When the train comes 'round

Got big plans in a rusty van
I′m headed to the city lights
Thirty-six dollars and a truck stop shower
Been getting me through the night
Spare flat tire
Don't call me a liar
Just get me to the nearest phone
Someday I′ll think of when I get my picture
On the cover of Rolling Stone

So don't make a sound
Turn the music down
And watch Mary go 'round

I say
With my ear pressed to the ground
I′m already laying down
When the train comes ′round

Does the wind cry Mary?
Or is it scary?

I say


Don't make a sound
Turn the music down
And watch Mary go ′round
So don't make a sound
Turn the music down
And watch Mary go ′round
I say

Don't make a sound
Turn the music down
And watch Mary go ′round
