It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry (Live at RFK Stadium, Washington, DC, 6/10/73)

[Intro]

We're having a few minor technical difficulties, but everything is gonna be alright

[Verse 1]

I ride on a mail train, mama

Can't buy a thrill

I've been up all night, mama

Leanin' on the windowsill

If I die on top of the hill

If I don't make it, you know my baby will

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

Don't the moon look good, mama

Shining through the trees?

Don't the brakeman look good, mama

Flaggin' down the "Double E?"

Don't the sun look fine

Settin' down over the sea?

Don't my gal look fine

When she's runnin' after me?

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Wintertime is coming

Windows are filled with frost

I tried to tell everybody

Could not get across

I wanna be your lovеr, baby

I don't wanna be your boss

Don't say I didn't warn you

When your train gets lost

[Outro]

Don't say I didn't warn you

Whеn your train gets lost
