A quarter after two
Sittin' in my car, watchin'
Waitin' on a train
Ninety seven flat cars
Loaded down with troop, trucks and tanks
Rollin' byI'm twenty one
And I'm scared as hell
I quit school
I was healthy as a horse
Because of all that
I'll be the first one to die in a warThe whole damn town was sleepin'
Dreamin' the same dream
Radio was playin'
Roger McGuinn singin'
"To each and every thing
There's a time and a season"I'm twenty one
And I'm scared as hell
I quit school
I was healthy as a horse
Because of all that
I'll be the first one to die in a warYes I have no right to say
We all die anyway
An' I'd just like to know
Where does my time go?
What for? What for?A quarter after two
Sittin' in my car, watchin'
Waitin' on a train
Ninety seven flat cars
Loaded down with troop, trucks and tanks
Rollin' by
