[Verse 1]
Every end has its story
Every heartache has its end
Every time you tried to warn me
Trouble's just around the bend
When that train rolls on
[Verse 2]
This train ain't bound for glory
Morning sun gonna shine anew
A good time's no good time for sorry
When you're only passing through
[Chorus]
When that train rolls on
I'll be going home
[Verse 3]
I can hear that whistle blowing
You know we did the best we could
Down the tracks, a heart is rolling
Down the hill and gone for good
[Chorus]
When that train rolls on
I'll be going home
[Bridge]
All the world surrounds you
Lonesome as it seems
When that train rolls on
[Outro]
You took a train to Babylon
You took a right and you made it wrong
You took a train to Babylon
You took a right and you made it wrong
