Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Caught the early morning train
One way ticket going west
Not too sure about myself
But it must be for the best
[Verse 2]
No return to Illinois
Leaving now I'm sure is right
Got to do what I can
Try to make myself a man
[Verse 3]
It's too late to change my mind
Illinois is miles behind
Too late now to go back home
Sunshine, soon I'll telephone
No return to Illinois
Write her soon to tell her I'm okay
[Verse 4]
Get myself a little job
Send her money every week
I'll find friends, make ends meet
Before long, I'll find my feet
[Verse 5]
Caught the early morning train
One way ticket going west
Not too sure about myself
But it must be for the best
[Verse 6]
It's too late to change my mind
Illinois is miles behind
Too late now to go back home
Sunshine, soon I'll telephone
No return to Illinois
Write her soon to tell her I'm okay
[Verse 7]
It's too late to change my mind
Illinois is miles behind
Too late now to go back home
Sunshine, soon I'll telephone
No return to Illinois
Should I try to say goodbye?
[Verse 8]
It's too late to change my mind
