Taking the train up to Santa Fe
My mind is in pieces and I have to get away
Have to get away from this solid wall of sickness
That I beat my head on every day
Watching all that barbed wire rolling on by
Bye bye baby, don't you wish that you were here
The mountains make the time and my troubles disappear
And I like feeling that way
So Roll On Santa Fe
Got us some friends up there we're gonna see
And let me tell you, buddy, they're important to me
I'd run a thousand miles to make connections with you
I'm sitting by this window trying to get back to
Watching all that barbed wire rolling on by
Bye bye baby, don't you wish that you were here
The mountains make the time and my troubles disappear
And I like feeling that way
So Roll On Santa Fe
Please Mister Brakeman, don't you look so down at me
I'm one of these conditions that he dislikes to see
Club cars, fancy bars, they're nowhere to me
I'm just trying to move myself on up the line a little
Taking the train up to Santa Fe
Good luck tomorrow doesn't bring it in today
Away all you conditions trying to get a piece of me
With all of this momentum I don't care if we agree
Watching all that barbed wire rolling on by
Bye bye baby, don't you wish that you were here
The mountains make the time and my troubles disappear
And I like feeling that way
So Roll On Santa Fe
Roll on, bye bye baby, roll on, bye bye baby...
