[Chorus]
There's no train
There’s no train goin' home
There's no train to where I come from
There’s no train
There's no train goin' home
There's no train to where I come from
[Verse 1]
Tales were told of a sort of fox-man
Down there, by the one tree in the meadow
Where I would stare and wonder about this fellow
Does he howl like a wolf?
Does he wear clothes?
Spun around in my mind on our drive
That seemed far but wasn't far
Across the border to get petrol for our car
[Chorus]
There's no train
There's no train goin' home
There’s no train to where I come from
There’s no train
There's no train goin’ home
There's no train to where I come from
[Verse 2]
Men went smugglin', over and back
Smugglin' butter, tobacco and slag
One man rose question every day
As he’d wheel his heavy wheelbarrow onto Irish clay
"What's your business smugglin'?"
And he'd say, "I'm smugglin' wheelbarrows from land to land
'Cross the border, and I'm doin' grand"
[Chorus]
There's no train
There's no train goin' home
There's no train to where I come from
[Outro]
If I can't drive, am I alone?
There's no train to where I come from
