Here's an alternate version of a song that also appears in a wholly different arrangement on my CD release "Roomful of Ghosts".
USED TO RIDE THAT TRAIN
i used to ride that train
from bologna up to amsterdam
used to take me two days to hitchhike
from boston down to birmingham
these days i just stay put
still i don't quite know where i am
i used to ride that train
see that alligator head
got it down in new orleans
it keeps smiling at me
as i sleepwalk through my scenes
that big old toothy grin
i think i know what it means
i used to ride that train
someone's trying to reach me
someone from my past
she sent some kind of message
said she's free at last
but i don't need the trouble
just tie me to the mast
i used to ride that train
i threw a rock in the pond
i'm not sure if it sank
never had a lot of interest
on my little bit of money in the bank
must be a reason i'm alive
right now i'm drawing a blank
but i used to ride that train
