Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can feel the wheels a-turnin' underneath my feet
As I pull the shade down on my window seat
Prayin' where I'm goin' is better than where I've been
Then a stranger sits down as if he's right at home
Touches me and says, "I see you're travelin' alone
And by the way, son, you forgot to say amen"
He says, "I guess there's somethin' here I need to explain
I try to talk to everyone riding this train
Some of them listen, but most don't pay me no mind"
[Chorus]
And the train keeps rollin'
And the world keeps turnin'
All aboard, all aboard
Everybody's gotta get on board
[Instrumental]
"Take that woman with the frown sittin' 'cross the aisle
With her briefcase open, nigh on ninety miles
She never even noticed that lake back at Horseshoe Bend
And that couple with the kids at the front of the car
Fussin' all the way 'bout some cookie jar
I'm gonna ask 'em what they saw at their journey's end
And there's a fellow I left sittin' in the back
Keeps a smile on his face through a paper sack
Lookin' out the window, but he can't see past the pain"
[Chorus]
And the train keeps rollin' (The train keeps rollin')
And the world keeps turnin' (The world keeps turnin')
All aboard, all aboard
Everyone's gotta get on board
[Instrumental]
Then the train slows down unexpectedly
As I raise my blind, he slaps my knee
Sayin', "This is my stop, son, but you won't be travelin' alone"
I look out my window to wave him goodbye
But there's nobody there, just a light in the sky
I lose my breath and my blood runs cold as stone
Then I feel the wheels a-turnin' underneath my feet
But life looks different from my window seat
Knowin' where I'm goin' is better than where I've been
[Chorus]
And the train keeps rollin' (The train keeps rollin')
And the world keeps turnin' (The world keeps turnin')
All aboard, all aboard
Everyone's gotta get on board
[Outro]
I can feel the wheels a-turnin' underneath my feet
