Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Two train tickets into L.A.
One round trip the other way
Oh, I get the feelin' when forever calls
I get the feelin' when forever calls
[Verse 2]
(Home trip) Ticket to sail away
(Hand grip) Hitchcock Railway
(Slow ride) Made for comfort
(Been tried) Guaranteed passport
[Verse 3]
(Hitchcock Railway) Please don't fail to pay
Hey, I'm gonna ride, I'm gonna testify
Get my soul in your mind
Good stop, good day, Hitchcock Railway
[Verse 4]
(Free fare) Conductor's comin'
(Prepare) Better start runnin'
(On time) Hold you through now
(State line) I've been convicted
Quick stop, good day, Hitchcock Railway, please hold on
[Verse 5]
Oh, somebody take a train ride
Oh, leap on
[Verse 6]
Two train tickets into L.A.
One round trip the other way
Oh, I get the feelin' when forever calls
I get the feelin' where the river falls
[Verse 7]
(Home trip) Ticket to sail away
(Hand grip) Hitchcock Railway
(Slow ride) Made for comfort
(Been tried) Guaranteed passport
[Verse 8]
(Hitchcock Railway) Please don't fail to pay
Hey, I'm gonna ride, I'm gonna testify
Take my soul, lift my mind
Good stop, good day, Hitchcock Railway
[Verse 9]
I'm gonna take the safe way home
Oh, alright, I'm gonna ride a train back home
I'm gonna buy me a ticket at a station
Don't want to go on a train tonight
[Verse 10]
(On a train now)
(On a train now)
(On a train now)
(On a train now)
I'm on a train tonight
(On a train now)
Hop on that train tonight
[Verse 11]
(On a train now)
I'm not goin' insane
(On a train now)
I'm not just goin' insane tonight
(On a train now)
It don't bother me no more
(On a train now)
It don't bother me no more
[Verse 12]
(On a train now)
'Cause I'm gonna ride the love to freedom
(On a train now)
I'm gonna ride the love to freedom
(On a train now)
And I'm no more
(On a train now)
[Verse 13]
Free fare
Oh, oh, yes sir
Free fare, tell me, love me
Hold tight, I'm gonna ride that love, yeah
Stay alive
Hitchcock
Hey
Railway
Please, take it
Hitchcock
Please, take it
Railway
[Verse 14]
Keep on hangin' out, my my baby
Can't grip
(Slow ride)
(Did try)
Oh, now, take me Lord
(Hitchcock)
(Railway)
[Verse 15]
Oh, now, yeah
(Hitchcock)
(Railway)
I'm gonna ride the love and love, eh
(Hey, hey-hey)
I'm gonna ride and take away
