Lyrics

Down around the corner
Half a mile from here
You see them long trains runnin'
And you watch 'em disappear
Without love
Where would you be now?
I won't know a thing without love
You know I saw Miss Lucy
Down along the tracks
She lost her home and her family
And she won't be coming back
Without love
Where would you be right now?
Without love
Illinois Central
And the Southern Central Freight
Got to keep on pushin', mama
'Cause you know they're runnin' late
Without love
Where would you be now?
I wanna know my baby
Without love (Well now, come on, play for the people)
Well, the Illinois Central
And the Southern Central Freight
Got to keep on pushin', mama
'Cause you know they're runnin' late
Without love
Where would you be now?
Without love
Well, pistons keep on churnin'
And the wheels go 'round and 'round
And the steel rails lie cold and hard
On the mountains they go down
Without love
Where would you be right now?
Tell me baby, without love
Ooh
I gotta know know know know baby
I gotta know where you be right now darling
You'll get there baby
Just a little futher na na na na na
You'll get there baby
Just a little futher na na na na na
Got to keep on movin'
Got to keep on movin'
Got to keep on movin'
