I was driving down a lonely road one dark and stormy night. I was fighting the wheel and it started to feel like something just ain't right. When up ahead in the distance I saw an approaching light. Coming out of the rain was a speeding train and so begins my plight. As that speeding train got closer I tried to look away. I thought if I could just close my eyes, then it might just go away. I jerked real hard upon the wheel and spinning round and round. I was driving down a lonely road one dark and stormy night. A pair of hands from that freight car, they snatched me up off the ground. Oh Mama Please. I wanna get off this train. Please take me home. I came to in a box car & it was rockin' side to side. The moon she stole the darkness and filled the space with light.

I started to fight, but hands held me tight and they shoved and pushed me down. They started in to singing low then went into a dance. As their shadows twisted on the wall I fell into a trance. Oh Mama Please. I wanna get off this train. Please take me home. All at once they screamed out loud and they shut there eyes tight. It broke the trance, I saw my chance and I dove into the night. As I tumbled through the darkness contemplating what went wrong I heard their tortured voices they were singing out this song. Oh Mama Please. I wanna get off this train. Please take me home.
