[Verse 1]
I left town 'bout an hour ago
And where I'm going, I don't know
My papa told me, "Don't you dare look back
There's nothing that you lack, just run"
No need for me to pay for my crimes
So I'm leaving, getting caught behind
My mama told me, "Just be safe"
No time to waste, I'm gonna be late, so
[Chorus]
Yeah, oh, yeah
Got no money and I got no gas
But I gotta get on that train
Gotta get on that train
And head West, far West
I'm just a man who's trying to get past
I gotta get on that train
Gotta get on that train
And go West
And go West
[Verse 2]
A second chance is all I need
Was locked up, but now I'm free
The lawman told me that I won't get far
Just following the stars in vain
And I will never get a home on me
I'm spelling out my own destiny
The preacher said, "I know you're a daring man
But don't forget who deals the hand," so
[Chorus]
Yeah, oh, yeah
Got no money and I got no gas
But I gotta get on that train
Gotta get on that train
And head West, far West
I'm just a man who's trying to get past
I gotta get on that train
Gotta get on that train
And go West
And go West
Yeah, oh, yeah
Got no money and I got no gas
But I gotta get on that train
Gotta get on that train
And head West, far West
I'm just a man who's trying to get past
I gotta get on that train
Gotta get on that train
Yeah, oh, yeah
