Lyrics

Stop That Train

Part 1

[Verse]

Finally comin' up for some air

Finally comin' up

Finally comin' up for some air

Finally comin' up

Finally comin' up for some air

Finally comin' up

Finally comin' up for some air

Finally comin' up

[Segue]

Somebody say, "Woah!"

Somebody say…

[Chorus]

Now I gotta go court the conductor

And I gotta bleed gold on the track

Breathin' in a choke hold...hold...hold...hold...hold...hold

And now I gotta go court the conductor

And I gotta bleed gold on the track

Breathin' in a choke hold...choke hold...choke hold...

[Segue]

Ho-hold...ho-hold...ho-hold...ho-hold...

Ho-hold...ho-hold...ho-hold

Part 2

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse]

Hallelujah, on your lips (on your lips)

Hallelujah, through your hips (through your hips)

Hallelujah, record skip (record skip)

Hallelujah, throw a fit (throw a fit)

Throw a fit

[Interlude]

(Aaaah, aaaah

Aaaah, aaaah

Aaaah)

[Bridge]

Never mind my mind

Never mind my mind

Never mind my mind

Never mi-mi-mi-mind

[Chorus]

For you I'd jump in front of a train, I'd lay in front of a bus

For you I'd jump in front of a train, forever my companion

For you I'd jump in front of a train, I'd lay in front of a bus

For you I'd jump in front of a train, forever my companion (Ah!)

[Instrumental Outro]

Part 3

[Chorus]

Stop that train! Stop that train!

Stop that train!

Stop that train! (Whoa!) Stop that train! (Huh!)

Stop that train!

Stop that train! (On the double!) Stop that train! (Let me off!)

Stop that train! (Conductor!)

Stop that train! (On the double!) Stop that train! (Lickety-split!)

Stop that train! (Conductor!)

Stop that train! (I wanna get off!) Stop that train! (I wanna get off!)

Stop that train! (I wanna get off! Huh!)

Stop that train! (I wanna get off!) Stop that train! (I wanna get off!)

Stop that train! (I wanna get off!)

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

Aaaah

(That's it)
