slow train

i'm heartbroken and i'm feelin' low-down

i'm sick and tired of the life i live around this old town

and i'm gettin' tired of cryin' over you

so honey

here's what i'm gonna do: i'm takin' the slow train for a long ride

i'm gonna stay a long time

losin' an old love

startin' a new life

i'm takin' the slow train

leavin' tonight

well i'm as lonesome as a soul could be

i've got to find someone who cares a little bit for me

and i'm gettin' tired of goin' down the track

still honey

i ain't never comin' back

i'm takin' the slow train for a long ride

i'm gonna stay a long time

losin' an old love

startin' a new life

i'm takin' that slow train

leavin' tonight

i'm takin' that slow train for a long ride

i'm gonna stay a long time

losin' an old love

startin' a new life

i'm takin' that slow train

leavin' tonight

i'm takin' that slow train

leavin' tonight
