When I Was Young,

I Spent My Summer Days

Playin' On The Track.

The Sound Of The Wheels Rollin'

Oon The Steel Took Me Out, Took Me Back.



[Chorus:]

Big Train From Memphis,

Big Train From Memphis,

Now It's Gone Gone Gone, Gone Gone Gone.



Like No One Before,

He Let Out A Roar,

And I Just Had To Tag Along.

Each Night I Went To Bed

With The Sound In My Head,

And The Dream Was A Song.



[Chorus]



Well I've Rode 'em In

And Back Out Again

You Know What They Say About Trains;

But I'm Tellin' You When

That Memphis Train Came Through,

This Ol' World Was Not The Same.



[Chorus]
