This train I'm on is right on time
In the mornin' I'll be there
It's been so long since I held her in my arms
I'm goin' back where I belong
Where a love will always keep me safe from harm

This train I'm on is right on time
Now I know I'm on my way
I can hear that whistle blow all down the line
And as the towns go rollin' by
I can almost smell the wind blow through the pines
And they'll all be out to meet me
'Cause there's no place where they treat you quite so fine

Well I've been all around and I know there's no place better
Sun is gonna shine again in my back door
Each time the wheels go 'round
I'm closer to the one I've waited for
