Tucson Train I got so down and out in 'Frisco Tired of the pills and the rain I picked up, headed for the sunshine I left a good thing behind Seemed all of our love was in vain My baby's coming in on the Tucson train
I come here lookin' for a new life One I wouldn't have to explain To that voice that keeps me awake at night When a little peace would make everything right If I could just turn off my brain Now my baby's coming in on the Tucson train
We fought hard over nothin' We fought till nothin' remained I've carried that nothin' for a long time Now I carry my operator's license
And spend my days just runnin' this crane My baby's coming in on the Tucson train
Hard work'll clear your mind and body The hard sun will burn out the pain If they're lookin' for me, tell 'em buddy I'm waitin' down at the station Just prayin' to the five-fifteen I'll wait all God's creation Just to show her a man can change Now my baby's coming in on the Tucson train
On the Tucson train On the Tucson train Waitin' on the five-fifteen Here she comes
