Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Shut up train, I'm tryin' to sleep
Can't you show me a little sympathy?
This is the only time I can get any peace
So shut up train, I'm tryin' to sleep
[Verse 2]
Every time the front door shakes
Every time I hear the brakes
And that long whistle cryin' through the night
I'm reminded of the way I feel
Just like that cold black steel
Gettin' crushed by your wheels tonight
I don't need no more pain
So shut up train
[Verse 3]
I hope you're happy, now I'm wide awake
Now I gotta deal with every ounce of this heartache
While you're movin' on, I'm stuck in this place
It's all your fault, yeah, so shut up train
[Verse 4]
Every time the front door shakes
Every time I hear the brakes
And that long whistle cryin' through the night
I'm reminded of the way I feel
Just like that cold black steel
Gettin' crushed by your wheels tonight
I can't take no more pain
So shut up train, yeah
[Verse 5]
Shut up train, stop rubbin' it in
You've made your point, I give up, you win
You win
[Verse 6]
(Go on) All the noise, all the pain, every night, same old thing
Why don't you shut up train? Go on and shut up train
(Go on) I give up, I give in, raise the flag, let you win
Why don't you shut up train? Go on and shut up train
(Go on)
Oh, shut up train (Go on)
Shut up train
