|
The thunder cracks against the night |
|
The dark explodes with yellow light |
|
The railroad sign is flashin' bright |
|
The people stare but I don't care |
|
My flesh is cold against my bones |
|
And Cheryl's goin' home |
|
Come, hear me shouting through the rain |
|
Is there a way to stop the train? |
|
I've got some reasons to explain |
|
About the way I was today |
|
The whistle moans and I'm alone |
|
And Cheryl's goin' home |
|
Santa Rose Special's down the line |
|
I'm runnin' desperately behind |
|
There's only one thing on my mind |
|
The rain and tears are in my eyes |
|
The things I have to say won't be known |
|
And Cheryl's goin' home |
|
And Cheryl's goin' home |
|
Oh, Cheryl's goin' home, Cheryl's goin' home |
