Lyrics
There were seventeen cars out in my back yard The boys in blue are calling my name Semi-automatic up on the rooftop They just to want to talk to me I told them what they wanted to hear The only thing that I knew: Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive Couldn't drag me back to you Everywhere you look, there's a train wreck, baby Everywhere you look, there's a runaway train Play my heart like a bottleneck, baby Running up and down and pulling its strings Everywhere you go, everybody knows You're looking for someone to do Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive Couldn't drag me back to you If I was a switchman, if I was a brakeman If I was an engineer I'd point that train on down the track And clear on out of here If I was the man swinging the lantern I'd swing it 'til it was blue Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive Couldn't drag me back to you
Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive Couldn't drag me back to you Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive Couldn't drag me back to you Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive Couldn't drag me back to you Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive Couldn't drag me back to you
