I hope this old train breaks down
Then I could take a walk around
See what there is to see
Time is just a melodyWith all the people in the street
Walk as fast as their feet
Can take them
I just roam through townAnd though my window's got a view
Where the frame I'm looking through
Seems to have no concern for me now
So for nowI need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdownWell, this engine screams out loud
Sayin' the beat gonna crawl westbound
So I don't even make a sound
'Cause it's gonna sting me when I leave this townAnd all the people in the street that I'll never get to meet
These tracks don't bend somehow
And I got no time that I got to get to
Where I don't need to be, so II need this
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdownI need this
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdownI wanna break on down
But I can't stop now
Let me break on downBut you can't stop nothing
If you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind
That you kept in, you knowYou don't know nothing
But you don't need to know
The wisdom's in the trees
Not the glass windowsYou can't stop wishing
If you don't let go
The things that you find
And you lose and you knowYou keep on rolling
Put the moment on hold
The frame's too bright
So put the blinds down low andI need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdownI need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdownI wanna break on down
But I can't stop now
