Train Jump Lyrics

My brother isn't like me but we have the same last name

He's always doing stupid stuff like jumping from a traim

Sometimes he takes me with him, but he makes me jump off first

I always seem to end up with my face in the dirt

Now I'm no Albert Einstein but I think I've ascertained

It's best to let the soloist go jumping from the train

I'm not like my father but sometimes I wish I was

Because he was a good man, or maybe just because

Never let his family down, showed up every time

The kind of guy that you could spot from the back of any line

I'd like to think if he were here he'd say I was ok

And living someone else's life ain't living anyway

Somebody tell the conductor he'd better keep an eye on me

There can't be more than 2 stops up ahead

Trains go faster over the desert; I ain't waitin' till we hit the sea

I still got time for one cigarette

And so today I threw away those handcuffs that I found

A million beers, a thousand tears I left them on the ground

Shook my vest and headed West, left the platform way behind

I may not find my happiness but I'll never lose my mind

Step out of the sunshine, jump into the rain

It sure as hell beats when I fell jumping from a train.

Somebody tell the conductor he'd better keep an eye on me

There can't be more than 2 stops up ahead

Trains go faster over the desert; I ain't waitin' till we hit the sea

I still got time for one cigarette
