Lyrics

I’m gonna build a railroad
I’m gonna lay the ties
I’m gonna send it right to your house
And I’ll be there on the other side
So when you’re getting tired
and it’s passing dusk
All you hear the roarin of the train
and I’m hoping that it keeps you up
Ooo I’ll be there smilin
Wishing you well
That one more night with you would be a night of hell
I’m gonna plan a city
With a swimmin pool
When the sun is highest in the sky
All the people will be nice and cool
And I’ll build your house
Made of tar and glass
You’re gonna live on the hottest side of town
I won’t let ya have a swimming pass
And I’ll be there smiling
On those hot tub jets
One more night with you
Would be my worst regret
I’m going back to school
to study politics
I’m gonna try the hardest in the class
And then I’ll run for president
I’m gonna write a law
And I’ll pass it through
I’ll bribe the senate and make it
against the law to marry you
I’ll be there smiling
Grinning cheek to cheek
One more night with you
Would be the death of me
I know it’s not becoming
And you could call it harsh
That’s how I’ll show you how I feel and
And tell you that you broke my heart
And I’ll sit here cryin’
It’s sad but true
Tonight I’ll sleep alone and think of nights with you
Tonight I’ll sleep alone and think of nights with you
