[Verse]
One blink and you would miss it
There's an outline in the distance
A cowboy riding into the night
In boots of Red Wing leather
And a camo Carhartt sweater
They haven't made since 2009

[PreChorus]
Well the M train swang like a boomerang
But I could hear the song he sang so softly
Awfully nice
He closed his eyes and sighed

[Chorus]
Oh
Life's been awful slow
Mine's a lonesome road
Train car take me home

[Verse]
In taverns on the outskirts
Like a rancher sans a cowherd
The bartеnd knows our cowboy by name
This bourbon's got him thinkin'
And a lifetime starts to sink in
Hе's homesick but there's no one to blame
[PreChorus]
Well the J train's long as the arm of the law
To the county line the sheriff called
He's gone now
Long out west
Where they still sing his song

[Verse]
Oh
Life's been awful slow
Mine's a lonesome road
Train car take me home

Train car take me home
