If love was a train I think I would ride a slow one
One that would ride through the night making every stop
If love was a train I would feel no pain
And I would never get off
If love was a train I think I would ride me a long one
Hear me talking, I'm talking fifty boxcars long
Aw, what's the use?
Most trains these days ain't got no engine
Much less no caboose, woo, woo
Look out, here she comes
Look out, there she goes
If love was a train I'd throw my body on her tracks
If love was a train I'd throw my body right down on her tracks
If love was a train I would feel no pain
As she rolled right down my back
But love ain't no train, more like a broncin' bull
And the most you got's fifteen seconds in the saddle
And even if you manage to ride, you are all shaken up inside
And it's gonna be a long time before you ride that bull again
If love was a train but love ain't a train
