Songtexte

[Verse 1]
(I've had an awful lot of requests recently)
(Asking, "What happened to all those old songs?")
(So just for you tonight)
(We're winding the clock up and playing them for you)
(I've always wanted to cross the ocean)
(I've always wanted to cross the sea)
(I've always wanted to go to China)
[Verse 2]
There is a train at Version City
Waiting for the rhythm mail
If you can jump, then jump right now
She'll pull you through to better days
[Verse 3]
Is that the train that they speak of
The one I heard in my younger days?
All great bluesmen have rode her
I'm jumping up, gonna ride that train
[Verse 4]
There's a lonely soul out on the crossroads
Waiting there in the pouring rain
He's looking for that great ride, yeah
That'll take him to oh what's her name?
[Verse 5]
So I rode that train from Version City
For ninety-nine and one half days
I never heard such rhythm sound
It was in my soul which was on the train
[Verse 6]
We went straight through Syndrum Junction
Up and over the Acapella Pass
Then Gibson Town and Fenderville
All stations to the Mesa Boogie Ranch
[Verse 7]
We saw that soul out on the cross roads
Waiting there in the pouring rain
We called, "Hey, engine, slow your rhythms
He wants to ride the version train"
[Verse 8]
We rode that train from Version City
For ninety-nine and one half years
I never seen such funky country
While riding with the engineers
[Verse 9]
I could not fill no application
Before I rode this rhythm train
I could not work at my station
Before I rode the version train
[Verse 10]
Version train
[Verse 11]
There is a train at Version City
Waiting for the rhythm mail
If you can jump, then jump right now
She can pull you through to better days
She can pull you through to better days
Pull you through to better days
Pull you through to better days
