Lyrics

0:14I hope this old train breaks down
0:17Then I could take a walk around
0:20And see what there is to see
0:24Time is just a melody
0:26With all the people in the street
0:28Walking as fast as their feet can take them
0:30I just roll through town
0:32And though my windows got a view
0:34Well the frame i'm looking through
0:36Seems to have no concern for me now
0:38So for now I
0:40I need this here
0:43Old train to breakdown
0:46Oh please just
0:49Let me please breakdown
1:05Well this engine screams out loud
1:08Centipede gonna crawl westbound
1:11So I don't even make a sound
1:14Because its gunna sting me when I leave this town
1:17And all the people in the street
1:18That I'll never get to meet
1:20If these tracks don't bend somehow
1:24And I got no time
1:25That I got to get to
1:27Where I don't need to be
1:29So I
1:31I need this
1:34Old train to breakdown
1:37Oh please just
1:40Let me please breakdown
1:44I need this
1:46Old train to breakdown
1:50Oh please just
1:53Let me please breakdown
1:58I want to break on down
2:01But I can't stop now
2:04Let me break on down
2:08But you can't stop nothing
2:10If you got no control
2:12Of the thoughts in your mind
2:13That you kept and you know
2:15That you don't know nothing
2:16But you don't need to know
2:18The wisdoms in the trees
2:19Not the glass windows
2:20You can't stop wishing
2:22If you don't let go
2:24Of the things that you find
2:26And you lose and you know
2:28You keep on rolling
2:29Put the moment on hold
2:31Because the frames too bright
2:32So put the blinds down low
2:35I need this
2:38Old train to breakdown
2:41Oh please just
2:44Let me please breakdown
2:47I need this
2:50Old train to breakdown
2:54Oh please just
2:57Let me please breakdown
3:05I got to break on down
3:11But I can't stop now
I hope this old train breaks down
Then I could take a walk around
And  see what there is to see
Time is just a melody
With all the people in the street
Walking as fast as their feet can take them
I just roll through town
And though my windows got a view
Well the frame i'm looking through
Seems to have no concern for me now
So for now I
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
Well this engine screams out loud
Centipede gonna crawl westbound
So I don't even make a sound
Because its gunna sting me when I leave this town
And all the people in the street
That I'll never get to meet
If these tracks don't bend somehow
And I got no time
That I got to get to
Where I don't need to be
So I
I need this
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I want to break on down
But I can't stop now
Let me break on down
But you can't stop nothing
If you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind
That you kept and you know
That you don't know nothing
But you don't need to know
The wisdoms in the trees
Not the glass windows
You can't stop wishing
If you don't let go
Of the things that you find
And you lose  and you know
You keep on rolling
Put the moment on hold
Because the frames too bright
So put the blinds down low
I need this
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I got to break on down
But I can't stop now
