Riding This Lonely Train
I'm riding this lonely train tonight
It's like I'm having a dream
Where did it go wrong
There I go again
Had to go and mess things up
You keep running through my head
Can't make it stop
Can't make it go away
You’re just imbedded in my mind
Please just go away
I'm so messed up, I'm all confused
I just want to go on with my life
So please just go away
You have no feeling
You have no sorrow
So I'm just gonna ride this lonely train tonight
I need to get you out of my mind
I have my sorrow and I have my pain
You left me standing out in the cold
I was invisible to you
Just a shadow in the distance
You’re just imbedded in my mind
Please just go away
I'm so messed up, I’m all confused
I just want to go on with my life
So please just go away
You have no feeling
You have no sorrow
So I'm just gonna ride this lonely train tonight
I need to get you out of my mind
You’re imbedded in my mind
Please just go away
I'm all messed up, I'm all confused
I just want to go on with my life
So I'm gonna ride this lonely train tonight
Riding this lonely train
So I'm gonna ride this lonely train tonight
Riding this lonely train

All Night Train
Transcribed by ed luskey
Last night sorta got so insane,
As I went ridin on the all night train.
Took it down the street and around the block,
Took it downtown baby where the big boys rock.
Roll on, roll on,
Take me where I can ease my pain.
Preacher say boy now where you been?
Getting lead in my pockets,
Putting money in sin.
When the mornin comes not a nickel to my name,
Threw it all away on the all night train.
Ride, let the passenger ride.
Ride, let the passenger ride.
I woke up late yesterday afternoon,
My eyeballs feeling like two balloons.
The doctor say things aint never gonna change,
Till you stop riding that all night train.
Ride, let the passenger ride.
Ride, let the passenger ride.
Took a little trip to keep from going insane,
Spent the rest of my life on the all night train.
All night train.
All night train.
All night train.

Ride On
Its another lonely evening
And another lonely town
But I aint too young to worry
And I aint too old to cry
When a woman gets me down
Got another empty bottle
And another empty bed
Aint too young to admit it
And Im not too old to lie
Im just another empty head
Thats why Im lonely
Im so lonely
But I know what Im gonna do -
Im gonna ride on
Ride on
Ride on, standing on the edge of the road
Ride on, thumb in the air
Ride on, one of these days Im gonna
Ride on, change my evil ways
Till then Ill just keep dragging on
Broke another promise
And I broke another heart
But I aint too young to realize
That I aint too old to try
Try to get back to the start
And its another red light nightmare
Another red light street
And I aint too old to hurry
Cause I aint too old to die
But I sure am hard to beat
But Im lonely
Lord Im lonely
What am I gonna do -
Ride on
Ride on, got myself a one-way ticket
Ride on
Ride on, going the wrong way
Ride on, gonna change my evil ways
Ride on, one of these days
One of these days
Ride on
Ride on
Im gonna ride on
Ride on, looking for a truck
Ride on
Ride on, keep on riding
Riding on and on and on

Are You Lonely Tonight
Sometimes I can tell early in the day
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny way
When things arent going right
It looks like just another lonely night
Wake me when its over shake me when its done
Maybe when the sun comes up Ill find a place to run
So dont lay there like a fool
cause all you have to do is call me
(chorus)
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say youre lonely tonight
travel round the world seen a million girls
I know Ive been around nothin gets me down
cause theres someone out there just like you
Someones out there just like me too
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say youre lonely tonight
Baby dont let it dont let it get ya
Just say the word and Ill be your cover
Im gonna try to get there today
Call me and tell me
You dont need another day
Lonely night (lonely tonight
Sometimes I can tell you dont have to say
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny war
When things arent going right
It looks like just another lonely
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say youre lonely tonight
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say youre lonely tonight

Heartbreak Express
Packin my suitcase writin a tear stained good-bye note
Sayin so long to a love gone wrong and thats all she wrote
Leavin behind what once was mine with sad regrets
But its all gone now and Im leavin town on the heartbreak express
Walkin in the rain with a heart full of pain to the train depot
The only things thats gonna keep me warm now is my overcoat
Lost and lonely waitin in line at the ticket desk
Hey mister wont you give me a one-way ticket on the heartbreak express
Im gonna roll on down the line
Im gonna go so far Im gonna get it off my mind
It hurts to know it aint enough when you give your best
Got a ticket to ride and Im leavin tonight on the heartbreak express
Oh I couldnt hold a candle to a flaming beauty that caught his eye
Its killin me now but I wont stay around and let him watch me die
Oh it just goes to show you never do know cause I never woulda guessed
Id be sittin here now on a train sorrow bound called the heartbreak express
Im gonna roll on down the line
Im gonna go so far Im gonna get it off mt mind
Maybe someday somewhere someway I will forget
But theres no goin back so roll down the track you ole heartbreak express
Feelin alone while a low whistle moans
On the heartbreak express

Who Wants To Be Lonely
Ooh, you look good tonight
Standing there in your own world
Baby, talk to me with your eyes
Before the moment dies
I want to say to you
Time is just passing us by
You keep waiting for something called love
Wake up in the middle of the night
Nobodys gonna make it alright
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be with you tonight, oh, oh
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be holding you tight, oh, oh
Ooh yeah
Open yourself to me
Let me show you what it can be like
Baby, giving it all that youve got
Nothing can hold you back
Some things can stand alone
A mountain can feel no desire
But a heart isnt made out of stone
Wake up in the middle of the night
Nobodys gonna make it alright
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be with you tonight, oh, oh
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be holding you tight, oh, oh
Who wants to be lonely, ooh
Who wants to be lonely, all by yourself
Who wants to be lonely, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Wake up in the middle of the night
Nobodys gonna make it alright
I want to say to you
Time is just passing us by
You keep waiting for something called love
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be with you tonight, oh, oh
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be holding you tight, oh, oh
(ooh yeah) who wants to be lonely
(yeah) who wants to be with you tonight, oh, oh (tell me tonight)
(yeah) who wants to be lonely (oh yeah)
Who wants to be holding you tight, oh, oh (tell me tonight)
(tell me tonight) who wants to be lonely (yeah)
Who wants to be with you tonight, oh, oh (tell me tonight, tell me)
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be holding you tight, oh, oh
Who wants to be lonely, who wants to be with you tonight

I Won't Be Lonely Tonight
Standing alone in the night
People talk around me
Under the neon street light
Tryin' hard to hold on
I need somebody's love to
Surround me
Tossing a coin in the air
Making my decision
What has gone wrong with my life
I've drunk all my religion
I need somebody's love
To remind me
I won't be lonely tonight
All I want's another baby
I won't be lonely tonight
All I need's another baby
Heads I leave town in the night
Tails I drink a bottle
If it should land on its side
I'll return to love you
I need somebody's life to
Surround me
I won't be lonely tonight
All I want's another baby
I won't be lonely tonight
All I need's another baby
And this is the last time
I wanna be
I'm gonna be
I won't be lonely tonight
All I want's another baby
I won't be lonely tonight
All I need's another baby

Let It Ride
Before I leave town today
Well, theres something
That I wanna say
That you regret the stormy night
You put your eyes on me
Well, you cheated on me
And you lied
And I mustve had that
A thousand times
But Ill be comin back one day
Just you wait and see
Oh, yeah, let it ride, let it ride
Let it slip, let it slide
Ride the night away
Let it ride, let it ride
Let it slip, let it slide
cause Ill be coming back to stay
This time you couldve let me live
But theres nothing more
That I can give
Youve stolen every day in my life
And then you threw it away
This train Im gonna ride tonight
Is gonna carry me
Right out of your sight
But Ill be comin back some time
And then youre gonna pay
Oh wont you take me tonight
Wont you carry me right to the top
Taking me higher
You carry me through
The things that you know
To the end of the line
How much higher?
The last lap is mine
Its too long as they say
You know its just what will be
As youve wavin goodbye
Keep rememberin why
The devil that got you was me
Youre the city where
I wanted to be
But the lonely spell you put on me
Its time for you to realise
That theres just no way

I Won't Leave You Lonely
Together-midnight in summer
The air's so much warmer
Falling in love under starlight
Holding on so tight-together
I won't leave you lonely tonight
I want you to hold me all night
It's gonna be alright
I won't leave you lonely tonight
I'magine-the air filled with jasmine
The breeze blows with passion
You and me dance with desire
The moon is on fire-imagine
I won't leave you lonely tonight
I want you to hold me all night
It's gonna be alright
I won't leave you lonely tonight
Je t'aime beaucoup mon amour
You are the one I adore
I won't leave you lonely tonight
I want you to hold me all night
It's gonna be alright
No you won't be lonely tonight
Na-na-na...

You are the one I adore
Te amo

Its Gonna Be Lonely
Weve been together for quite some time
Id think by now youd know
It would take forever to get you off my mind
If ever you decide to go
I guess I got a little insecurity when its concerning you
I guess Im just afraid that if you ever leave
Id be in a messed-up state of blue
And Id be so lonely
Without you loving me
I know its gonna be lonely
Without you giving me everylittlesinglething that I need, lonely
Whatevers in your kiss, it really turns me on
til I go right out of my mind
And who could ever resist your accent from gay paree
It gets me every time
I betcha thatcha never knew that in my dreams you are the star
The only bummer is that you always want to leave
Who do you think you are
Dont you know its gonna be lonely
Without you loving me
I know its gonna be lonely
Without you giving me everylittlesinglething that I need, lonely
Its gonna be lonely
Without you loving me
Giving me everything that I need
Oh pretty baby, cant you see
Its gonna be lonely
Without you loving me
I know, I know its gonna be lonely
Oh, whatevers in your kiss
I never could resist
Oh, baby dont go!
Weve been together for quite some time
Itd take forever to get you off my mind
Oh, girl!
Without you loving me
I know its gonna be lonely
Without you by my side
Dont you know that I could die, baby
Without you loving me
Cant you see
Its gonna be lonely
Its gonna be lonely, baby
So lonely, baby

Across The Border
Ive been workin so hard, baby,
Tryin to get to you.
Im gonna be there soon because
In the heat of the day many miles away
When the sun is beating down upon the main street
Ill be waiting here at the station,
I gotta move down the line.
Theyll be dancin and singin and doin their thing
And theyll be rockin and rollin until the day is done.
You know I got to make the deadline.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I dont get to the border then Ill write.
The mardi gras will be blowing strong
And the people dancing all across the city.
Im leaving here tonight,
I gotta move down the line.
Im gonna catch a ride on the nine-o-five,
Im gonna ride the rail until we reach the morning,
Maybe three or four hundred miles.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I dont get to the border then Ill write.
When the wind is blowing softly
Through the streets of a little town and the musics playin
Youre waiting somewhere over the horizon.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I dont get to the border then Ill write.

Next Train
Well I finally found tomorrow
'Cause I just now found today
But I'm left with all the sorrow
Lingering from yesterday
So I'm leaving this behind on the next train
To what place, well I don't know
When I leave I may not ride on the best train
But it's time for me to let go
Well I'd love for you to be there
On the day I say goodbye
But I've lost too much to your stare
To even waste a sigh
So I'm leaving this behind on the next train
To what place, well I don't know
When I leave I may not ride on the best train
But it's time for me to let go
Yes it's time for me to let go
You're the drug that's in my veins
You lift me up and leave me pain
I'm broken, beaten, barely sane
And I'm leaving on the next train
I gladly stayed to wade it through
And find out what I've meant to you
Now it's clear to me this time
So I'm leaving this behind
So I'm leaving this behind on the next train
To what place, well I don't know
When I leave I may not ride on the best train
But it's time for me to let go
So I'm leaving this behind on the next train
To what place, well I don't know
When I leave I may not ride on the best train
But it's time for me to let go
Yes it's time for me to let go

Downtown Train
(tom waits)
Outside another yellow moon
Has punched a hole in the night time mist
I climb through the window and down to the street
Im shining like a new dime
The downtown trains are full
Full of all them brooklyn girls
They try so hard to break out of their little worlds
You wave your hand and they scatter like crows
They have nothing thatll ever capture your heart
Theyre just thorns without the rose
Be careful of them in the dark
Oh if I was the one you chose to be your only one
Oh baby cant you hear me now, cant you hear me now
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Every night, every night its just the same
On a downtown train
I know your window and I know its late
I know your stairs and your doorway
I walk down your street and past your gate
I stand by the light of the four way
And watch them as they fall, oh baby
They all having their heart attacks
They stay at the carnival
But theyll never win you back
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Every night, every night its just the same
You leave me lonely
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
All my dreams, all my dreams fall like rain
On a downtown train
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Every night, every night its just the same
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
All my dreams, all my dreams fall like rain
On a downtown train
On a downtown train
All my dreams fall like rain
On a downtown train

Lonely
I ride lonely lonely waves
Two worlds below multitudes beyond
Just as you said I'd ride lonely
But lonely I don't mind
I sing lonely lonely songs
Two songs below multitudes beyond
Just as it is be low low lonely
Lonely I don't mind
It hammers at hours chisels forms of time
It hammers lonely Luna tunes of change
To end up a late verse forgotten rhyme
Not a single lonely with which to exchange

Borderstone
The night is as black as the coal dust on the tracks
Up to the east day is dawning
From time to time I get women on my mind
Im a son of a gun
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
The train that Im on is a hundred boxcars long
So I dont sleep through to the morning
Thats some chilly wind in this gondola Im in
I wish I had a glass of beer
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
The boardinghouse reach is a thing no school can teach you
I confess Ive been outfumbled
And the sound of the beans boiling through the evergreens
Sure do please a hungry man
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
The sound of the wheels rebounds across the fields
Im a name with no number
And so I guess Id be drifting more or less
But still its not meant to be
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
Borderstone, borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight

Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight
Do me wrong, do me right
Tell me lies, but hold me tight
Save your goodbyes for the morning light
But don't let me be lonely tonight
Say goodbye, woman say hello, say hello
Sure enough good to see you, oh but it's time to go
Don't say yes, but please don't say no
I don't want to be lonely tonight
Go away then damn you,
Go and do as you please, go and do as you please girl,
You ain't gonna see me getting down on my knees
Cause I'm undecided, and your heart's been divided
You've been turning my world upside down
Do me wrong, do me right, do me right baby

Midnight Train
(instrumental intro)
Oh my darling will you come to me
Shaking now just like a willow tree
So tell me whats the story
This track well ride to glory
Coming home
Pretty karla and her russian clothes
Clapboard house and a different nose
Love keeps a candle burning
These steel wheels are turning
Back for home
Come in out of the rain
Come out of the night
Out on the midnight train
Midnight train
Come out of the light
Come out of the rain
Riding the midnight train
Midnight train
Moscow lights, well they dim and glow
The taste is sweeter than its driven snow
So tell me whats the story
This track to ride to glory
Coming home
Come out of the rain, come out of the lights,
Out on the midnight train, midnight train
Come out of the lights, come out in the rain,
Riding the midnight train, midnight train

Oh my darling will you come to me
Shaking now just like a willow tree
Come out of the lights, come out in the rain,
Riding the midnight train, midnight train
Out of the rain, live again, riding the midnight train, midnight train
Come of the lights, into the rain, riding the midnight train, midnight train
One little strange, come back again

Help Me Understand
Once in a lifetime
You'll open up your heart
Maybe once in your lifetime
You'll swear to never be apart
You think your love's on solid ground
Then out of the blue, it all comes tumblin' down
Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell Me
Somebody help me understand
And my picture in your locket
What will you do with it now
All our friends and all our memories
Tell me how we sort them out
What's yours is yours
What's mine is mine
Is that all that's left
After all this time
Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell Me
Somebody help me understand
Why I'm not part of your plan
And you don't need me anymore
Make me understand
Why I still wanna be where you are
Even though I know in my heart
That you don't love me anymore
Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell Me
Somebody help me understand

Let Me Change Your Mind Tonight
Baby, should've known that it was late
Were you sleeping?
Were you lying there awake?
Must have been crazy
Should've never gone this far
Like a fool I did not know
That I was breaking us apart
Now I see how I was wrong
I see it so clearly
Now that you've gone
How'm I gonna face it?
How'm I gonna learn?
How'm I gonna make it
Now I'm feeling you burn?
How'm I gonna get you in my life again?
Let me change your mind tonight
'Cause I know I'm wrong
Let me change your mind
Sorry I'll say it now a million times
Am I too late?
Is that you I hear crying?
Now I know just what I've done
Without you near me where can I run
How'm I gonna change it?
How's it gonna go?
How'm I gonna make it
When I need your body, heart and soul?
How'm I gonna get you in my life again?
Let me change your mind tonight
Let me steal back that heart you hide
Let me change your mind tonight
'Cause I know I'm wrong
Let me change your mind
How'm I gonna face it?
How'm I gonna know
Just how much I love you
Just how far the feeling goes?
How'm I gonna get you in my life again?
Don't make me wait
Don't make me wait, baby
Let me change your mind tonight
Let me steal back that heart you hide
Let me change your mind tonight
'Cause I know I'm wrong
Let me change your mind
