Lyrics

[Chorus]
Stop that train, I'm leaving today
Stop that train, I'm leaving anyway
Stop that train, I'm leaving, and I said it
Won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
I said it won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
[Verse 1]
All my good life, I've been a lonely man
Teaching the people who don't understand
And even though I tried my best
I still can't find no happiness
So I got to say
[Chorus]
Stop that train, I'm leaving any day now
Stop that train, I'm leaving, I don't care what you say
Stop that train, I'm leaving, and I said it
Won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
Said it won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
[Verse 2]
Some going east and some going west
Some stand aside to try their best
Some living big, and the most is living small
They just can't even find no food at all
[Chorus]
I mean, stop it
Stop that train, I'm leaving, believe me, mmm-hmm
Stop that train, I'm leaving, I don't mind
Stop that train, I'm leaving, and I said it
Won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
I said it won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
[Chorus]
Stop that train, I'm leaving, believe me
Stop that train, I'm leaving, can't take it
Stop that train, I'm leaving, it's got to be better
It won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
