I saw her there from across the street, she was dressed in black

And when she moved she moved to a beat, like a cadillac

She rode a train, train train train, a train of gold



She was a woman of suspicious ways, never saw daylight

And in her room she sat and passed the days

And she'd creep out at night

She rode a train, train train train, a train of gold



Chorus: train of gold, train of gold

It took me so long to find out i was wrong







Now i wait for her in the night



Looked through a window saw a velvet sky, a shade of green

A violin was playing soft and sweet, like it was a dream

She rode a train, train train train, a train of gold



Train of gold, train of gold

It took me so long to find out i was wrong

Now i wait for her in the night



Train of gold, train of gold

I don't believe her, it just couldn't be her

I can't get it out of my mind
