Mark Manthei - Get On Board Lyrics
Layin' tracks through the countryside, I had a planAnd I couldn't see no future in these northern townsThat's when I heard the whistle, it was callin' me downChorusIt said get on board, this ain't no trainIt's a living legend, from way back whenAnd it rolls by that highway in a parallel lineThrough the rest of these towns, the world left behindNow the pool halls and the junk yards were a place to call homeHangin' out with the good ol' boys, no one was aloneAnd when it came time for leavin', we did it one by oneThat's when I heard the whistle, it was callin' me downChorusIt said get on board, this ain't no trainIt's a living legend from way back whenAnd it rolls by that highway in a parallel lineThrough the rest of these towns, the world left behindBridgeNo I didn't have to runCause there was no where to hideBut when the whistle called me downThat's when I knew it was timeChorusIt said get on board, this ain't no trainIt's a living legend from way back whenAnd it rolls by that highway in a parallel lineThrough the rest of these townsThis little old world left behind
