Healin’ Train
Verse 1
When we were young - we were wild yeah
Always together just we three
Me an’ Jon and Gypsy Boy - tryin’ to feel free
Tattered jeans and sneakers
Wanderin’ on the train line
Getting’ high on weed an’ pills - all at the same time
Chorus
Take me back home – healin’ train ooh
With my boys - where we went walkin’
Let me sing to them once more ah
Where we were true and rockin’
Verse 2
Singin’ to truckers in the dark
Down by the motorway café
Hitched that ride down south – to break away
They was old ‘fore they got young
Wish I could see them now
Maybe they’re still walkin’ round free – I doubt it somehow
Chorus
Take me back home – healin’ train ooh
With my boys - where we went walkin’
Let me sing to them once more ah
Where we were true and rockin’
Break
We’d go walkin’ in the shady wood ahh ahh ahh
I was their chanteuse ahh ahh ahh
Didn’t need to love them any other way ahh ahh ahh
I know they understood
Chorus
Take me back home – healin’ train ooh
With my boys - where we went walkin’
Let me sing to them once more ah
Where we were true and rockin’
Oh healin’ train ooh
If I knew I could see my boys again
I’d wait forever in the fallin’ rain ah
Just to see my boys again
