Trains Across the Sea

Troubles, no troubles

On the line

And I can't stand to see you

I can't stand to see you

When you're crying at home

Scotch and penicillin

Please try Carlton

A cold black maple hangar

And husbands on the run

I just got back from a dream attack

That took me by surprise

And in there, I met a lady

Her name was Shady Sides

And she said

"It's been evening all day long

It's been evening all day long

And how can something so old

Be so wrong?"

Sin and gravity

Drag me down to sleep

To dream of trains across the sea

Trains across the sea

Half hours on Earth

What are they worth?

I don't know

In twenty-seven years

I've drunk fifty thousand beers

And they just wash against me

Like the sea into a pier

Mmm-mmm-mmm

Mmm-mmm-mmm

Mmm-mmm-mmm
