I saw her there from across the street, she was dressed in black And when she moved she moved to a beat, like a Cadillac, She rode a train, train train train, a train of gold.
She was a woman of suspicious ways, never saw daylight And in her room she sat and passed the days And she'd creep out at night, She rode a train, train train train, a train of gold.
[Chorus:] Train of gold, train of gold — It took me so long to find out I was wrong, Now I wait for her in the night.
Looked through a window saw a velvet sky, a shade of green A violin was playing soft and sweet, like it was a dream She rode a train, train train train, a train of gold.
Train of gold, train of gold It took me so long to find out I was wrong Now I wait for her in the night.
Train of gold, train of gold I don't believe her, it just couldn't be her I can't get it out of my mind.
