I'm in a point in my life, Lord
Where the rewards don't come easy, and they rarely ever come forth
But, boys like me, we don't put the future first
We're just a day ahead of the game, and floatin' is our curse
And I know, oh yes, I know, that if I keep my head down
I will go where I'm supposed to go
And my soul, oh yes, my soul, is on a train where I'm bound to go
The twenty's are my tornado years
One day, I know where I'm goin'
Then the next, I'm twisted up in tears
And I'm old enough, don't ever tell me what to do
But I'll be drivin' home some days, just to grab myself a plate of food
And I know, oh yes, I know,
That I'm old enough, now I should spell tomorrow
And my soul, oh yes, my soul, is on a train where I'm bound to go
Do you ever look around and see the world just cavin' in
Was pressure high a thousand years ago, was it really more sin
But I'll sleep in on Saturdays, and I'll let the sunbeam warm up
And I'll pour myself a cup, and I'll kiss my lady when she gets up
And I know, oh yes, I know, there's no need to feel sad
Don't ever make yourself feel low
And my soul, oh yes, my soul, is on a train where I'm bound to go
