Big Train (From Memphis)

When I was young,

I spent my summer days

Playin' on the track.

The sound of the wheels rollin'

On the steel took me out, took me back.[Chorus]

Big Train from Memphis,

Big Train from Memphis,

Now it's gone gone gone, gone gone gone.Like no one before,

He let out a roar,

And I just had to tag along.

Each night I went to bed

With the sound in my head,

And the dream was a song.[Chorus]Well I've rode 'em in

And back out again

You know what they say about trains;

But I'm tellin' you when

That Memphis train came through,

This ol' world was not the same.[Chorus]
