He had such a short attention span 
He was born with restlessness in his soul 
She was well aware from the moment it began 
This rollin stone would have to go 
Who can blame him 
If he’s true to his hearts desire 
Who can blame him 
If he can’t put out the fire 
Who can blame him 
If his feet were meant to run 
If he likes the morning sun upon his back 
Well you might as well blame the freight train 
For loving the railroad track 
She could see the sparkle disappear 
As things came familiar to his eyes 
She could sense time was drawin near 
When you want it to stop 
Its funny how time flies 
Who can blame him 
If he’s true to his hearts desire 
Who can blame him 
If he can’t put out the fire 
Who can blame him 
If his feet were meant to run 
If he likes the morning sun upon his back 
Well you might as well blame the freight train 
For loving the railroad track 
Now he’ll keep her memory near his heart 
But he’ll keep his conscious clean 
Cause he told no lies and she knew right from the start 
He could never be tied to a 
Nine to Five routine 
Now we all have our addictions 
And wonder lust is one 
Some cherish their restrictions 
They stop and stare but he liked movin on 
Who can blame him 
If he’s true to his hearts desire 
Who can blame him 
If he can’t put out the fire 
Who can blame him 
If his feet were meant to run 
If he likes the morning sun upon his back 
Well you might as well blame the freight train 
For loving the railroad track 
Well you might as well blame the freight train 
For loving the railroad track
