You Didn't Have To Lyrics


That old train keeps blowing
Through the center of this town
Restores my faith
When the chips are down
It don't take no passenger
Since the streets got re-arranged
But that whistle still blows
Because one thing never changed
The boy I was loving
Had to say so long
Back to a world
Where I don't belong
It affected me so
You could say I was deranged
But that whistles gonna blow

Because one thing never changed
Speak to me
Speak to me again
Speak to me
Speak to me again
That old train keeps blowing
I can hear it in the night
I hold onto myself
Its gonna be alright
People come and go
Like cars changing lanes
But that whistles gonna blow
Because one thing never changed

The Pretenders are a rock band who came to prominence during the punk and new wave movement of the late 1970s due to their innovative songwriting and charismatic performances. The original band consisted of group founder, songwriter, vocalist, and rhythm guitarist Chrissie Hynde, lead and rhythm guitarist James Honeyman-Scott, bassist Pete Farndon, and drummer Martin Chambers. Save for Hynde, a native of Akron, Ohio, the original band members were all from the U.K. This band was fractured by drug-related deaths and numerous subsequent personnel changes have taken place over the years, with Hynde as the sole constant. With Hynde at the helm, the band drifted through more adult contemporary-oriented territory, but experienced a critical resurgence with a trio of albums released between the mid-90s and early 00s that explored a more mature side of the band's classic sound.
