Train in Vain (Live at Shea Stadium)

[Joe Strummer]

"ooooooh, ooooooh, oooooh"

[Verse 1]

You say you stand by your man

Tell me something I don't understand

You said you love me and that's a fact

Then you left me, said you felt trapped

Well some things you can explain away

But the heartache's in me 'til this day

[Chorus]

You said you'd stand by me

No, not at all

You said you'd stand by me

No way

What did you say?

Said you'd stand by me

What did you say?

No way

[Verse 2]

And all the times when we were close

I'll remember these things the most

I see all my dreams come tumblin' down

I can't be happy without you 'round

So alone I keep the wolves at bay

And there's only one thing I can say

[Chorus]

You didn't stand by me

No, not at all

You said you'd stand by me

No way

Did you stand by me? I need you back

Said you stand by me

No way

[Bridge]

You must explain

Why this must be

Did you lie

When you spoke to me?

You said you'd stand by me

[Verse 3]

So I got a job, but it don't pay

I need new clothes, I need somewhere to stay

But without all these things I can do

But without your love, I won't make it through

You don't understand my point of view

I suppose there's nothing I can do

[Chorus]

You said you'd stand by me

What did you say?

No way

I heard you right

What did you say?

No way

[Verse 4]

You must explain

Why this must be

Did you lie

When you spoke to me?

[Outro]

You said you'd stand by me

No not at all

You said you'd stand by me

No way

What did you say?

Said you'd stand by me

No way

Said you'd stand by me

What did you say?

Said you'd stand by me

No way

Said you'd stand by me
