Eastbound Train

Passing time on an eastbound train

Watching the skies fora sign of rain

My feet upon the armrest I can see the country

Streaming by

Wanting to know, where it is I've got to go

Looking at the ladies

From one town to the next

Riding on the crest of a wave



Played a country town with our eyes half-closed

Sleeping in a house in van Seeslee road

We sang our song so well though we couldn't even hear a word

The band was playing loud,

Running through the crowd

Sometimes we were laughing,

From one town to the next

Riding on the crest of a wave

A band of angels



The side of a wall saying "Jesus Saves"

And from a garden a young boy waves

And he passes from my eyes beyond the window's changing view

Somebody smiles, falling down the aisles,

I can hear you sighing

From one town to the next

Riding on the crest of a wave

A band of angels

(Same way through my rest)
