Long Train Running    (1973)

Down around the corner
A half a mile from here
You can see them long trains run
And you watch them disappear
Without love
Where would you be now
Without love

You know I saw Miss Lucy
Down along the tracks
She lost her home and her family
And she won't be comin' back
Without love
Where would you be right now
Without love

Well the Illinois Central
And the Southern Central Freight
Gotta keep on pushin' Mama
'Cause you know they're runnin' late
Without love
Where would you be now - now, now, now
Without love

Well the Illinois Central
And the Southern Central Freight
Gotta keep on pushin' Mama
'Cause you know they're runnin' late
Without love
Where would you be now - now, now, now
Without love

Well the pistons keep on churnin'
And the wheels go 'round and 'round
And the steel rails are cold and hard
For the miles that they go down
Without love
Where would you be right now
Without love
Where would you be now

Mmm..ooh you got to get the baby thing
I want to move it down
I want to move it down
Baby, baby, baby, babe, oh won't you move it down

There's a big train running
With the train I'm moving on
I got to keep on moving, keep on moving
I got to keep on moving, I'm going to keep on moving

Lyrics by Tom Johnston.
Recorded by The Doobie Brothers.
