Union Station, tombstone high

No more tears, this fountain dry

Nameless faces, just headlines

We don't ride that train no more


No resistance, turn my head

They could go out East instead

Newfoundland, land of my father

I don't ride your train no more


Cold steel shining, Battle Creek

Eyes are heavy, rain and sea

Massey-Ferguson memories

Don't ride that train no more


Hey there captain, is that you

Could you tell me, tell me what to do

I been twenty years on that Soo line

We don't ride your train no more


Smoke rises from the face of sand

dreams about, dreams of beaver dams

Sam can't hear quite like he used to

Tell them why we don't ride no more


Hey Pierre Trudeau oh, where are you?

My friend to lead us through

these hard times, so much confusion

I don't hear your train no more


I can't ride no more... (repeat)
