Well, there's a blue moon hanging in a small town sky
Nobody's listening to the band tonight
Nobody feels like dancing in this sad cafe
Oh, but you and me baby we got something to live for
One more step and we'll be out that door
I don't know where we're going but we're already on our way

The train is leaving and it won't come back
We got one-way tickets on a one-way track
Nobody's gonna get their hands on the plans we made
And nobody's gonna rain on our parade

Well, there's a red light blinking on an empty street
Church bells ringing in the dog day heat
The more we try to change things, the more they stay the same
But there ain't no telling just what we'll find
Out past the city limit sign
There's a voice out there and I heard it calling our name

The train is leaving and it won't come back
We got one-way tickets on a one-way track
Nobody's gonna get their hands on the plans we made
And nobody's gonna rain on our parade

Well, there ain't nobody
Don't need nobody
Couldn't be nobody
Don't see nobody
Nobody's gonna rain on our parade

The train is leaving and it won't come back
We got one-way tickets on a one-way track
Nobody's gonna get their hands on the plans we made
And nobody's gonna rain on our parade

The train is leaving and it won't come back
One-way ticket on a one-way track
Nobody's gonna rain on our parade
