Lyrics

Well, I ride on a mail train, baby
Can't buy a thrill
I been up all night, baby
Leanin' on the windowsill
If I die on top of the hill
And if I don't make it
You know my baby will
Don't the moon look good, mama
Shining down through the tree?
Don't the brakeman look good, mama
Flaggin' down the "Double E?"
Don't the sun look good
Goin' down over the sea?
But don't my gal look fine
When she's comin' after me?
Wintertime is coming
The windows are filled with frost
I went to tell everybody
But I could not get across
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby
I don't wanna be your boss
Don't say I never warned you
If your train gets lost
Written by: Bob Dylan
