Downbound Train

[ti:Downbound Train] [ar:Bruce Springsteen] [al:Born In The U.S.A] [by:季风网-【http://www.ip21.cn】] [offset:0] I had a girl I had something going mister in this world I got laid off down at the lumber yard Our love went bad times got hard Now I work down at the carwash Where all it ever does is rain Don′t you feel like you′re a rider on a downbound train She just said "Joe I gotta go We had it once we ain′t got it any more" She packed her bags left me behind She bought a ticket on the Central Line Nights as I sleep I hear that whistle whining I feel her kiss in the misty rain And I feel like I′m a rider on a downbound train Last night I heard your voice You were crying crying you were so alone You said your love had never died You were waiting for me at home Put on my jacket I ran through the woods I ran till I thought my chest would explode There in the clearing beyond the highway In the moonlight our wedding house shone I rushed through the yard I burst through the front door My head pounding hard up the stairs I climbed The room was dark our bed was empty Then I heard that long whistle whine And I dropped to my knees hung my head and cried Now I swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang Knocking down them cross ties working in the rain Now don′t it feel like you′re a rider on a downbound train
