Lonely train, lonely train, take me through the lonely rain
Take me where all broken hearts belong
By your tracks, lonely tracks, there must be some lonely shack
I can stay till all my heartaches gone
Lonely train stop for me
Down in lonesome valley for that's where I'll be
Lonely train, lonely train, all that I have left is pain
On the lonely train of memory
--- Instrumental ---
Once I had everything, everything that made me sing
And the love I thought would never end
But someone came along, stole my girl and stole my son
And my heart has never sung again
So lonely train stop for me
Down in lonesome valley for that's where I'll be
Lonely train, lonely train, all that I have left is pain
On the lonely train of memory...
