The Del McCoury Band - All Aboard

This is a great song and a great band. They sound even better live. DO NOT BE GAY AND POST STUPID COMMENTS AND/OR SPAM. THEY WILL BE DELETED.

Lyrics:
I can feel the wheels turning underneath my feet
As I pull the shade down on my window seat
Praying where I'm going is better than where I've been
Then a stranger sits down as if he's right at home
Touches me and says, I see you're traveling alone
And by the way, son, you forgot to say amen
He says, I guess there's something here I need to explain
I try to talk to everyone riding this train
Some of them listen, but most don't pay me no mind

And the train keeps rolling, and the world keeps turning
All aboard, all aboard, everybody's gotta get on board

Take that woman with the frown sitting across the aisle
With her briefcase open nigh on ninety miles
She never even noticed that lake back at Horseshoe Bend
And that couple with the kids at the front of the car
Fussing all the way about some cookie jar
I'm gonna ask them what they saw at their journeys end
And there's a fellow I left sitting in the back
Keeps a smile on his face through a paper sack
Looking out the window but he can't see past the pain

And the train keeps rollin', and the world keeps turnin'
All aboard, all aboard, everybody's gotta get on board

Then the train slows down unexpectedly
As I raise my blind he slaps my knee
Sayin', this is my stop son, but you won't be travelin' alone
I look out my window to wave him goodbye
But there's nobody there, just a light in the sky
I lose my breath and my blood runs cold as stone
Then I feel the wheels turnin' underneath my feet
But life looks different from my window seat
Knowin' where I'm going is better than where I've been

And the train keeps rollin', and the world keeps turnin'
All aboard, all aboard, everybody's gotta get on board

I can feel the wheels a turnin' underneath my feet
