Bob Dylan
Well, I ride on a mailtrain, baby, can't
buy a thrill
Well, I've been up all night, baby, leanin'
on the window sill
Well, if I die on top of the hill
And if I don't make it, you know my baby
will
Don't the moon look good, mama, shinin'
through the trees?
Don't the brakeman look good, mama, flagging
down the "Double E"?
Don't the sun look good goin' down over
the sea?
Don't my gal look fine when she's comin'
after me?
Now the wintertime is coming, the windows
are filled with frost
I want to tell everybody, but I could
not get across
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't
wanna be your boss
Don't say I never warned you when your
train gets lost
