Everybody talks about some fateful day

I guess that this was mine

I may be here to tell some kind of story

But I think it's gonna take a little time

That's alright

See 'em rocking in a cradle out a hall somewhere

And I am lost inside a dream

Maybe I am falling, maybe I am flying

But I know if I am crying she's holding me

And then the sky broke open and the rain came down

And it washed away everything on the ground

Wash it away, wash it away

Wash it away

Baby's got that bottle filled with lightning and rain

He keeps calling out for someone

But she's riding on a train

Riding on a ghost train

And she keeps on riding

She's gonna keep on riding

Mama, keep on riding

Keep on riding

Some trains, they leave in the morning

Some leave in the afternoon

Some trains, they leave here right on time

Some, they just leave too soon

Way too soon

Gonna keep on riding

Baby's got that bottle filled with lightning and rain

He keeps calling out for someone

But she's riding on a train

Riding on a ghost train

Yeah, she keeps on riding

(And then the sky broke open and the rain came

Down

And it washed away everything on the ground)

She keeps on riding

She just keeps on riding

(Wash it away, wash it away

Wash it away)

Keep on riding

Baby's got that bottle filled with lightning and rain

He keeps calling out for someone

But she's riding on a train

Riding on a ghost train

Riding on a ghost train

(Wash it away, wash it away)

Riding on a ghost train

Riding on a ghost train

Riding on a ghost train
