(Danni Leigh/Doug Swander)



Standing on the westbound track with my hands in my pockets

The wind blows against my back wishing me down the line

Guess I've had enough of this empty feeling

Finally gonna leave all this pain behind



Haunted by a past of a lone gone lonely

Bought a ticket, free at last, figure I'll take a ride

Around here, I can't shake what seems to ail me

I'll be somewhere else, come morning light



Gonna take the last train to San Antone

Give my troubled mind somewhere to go

Want to get lost in that old city

A stranger there may have some pity

What's around the bend, I'll never know

If I'm not on that train to San Antone



Staring out across the night, I find hope through the darkness

I feel a rumble, see a light, it looks about a mile away

My anticipation of tomorrow

Keeps my heart from hanging on to yesterday



Gonna take the last train to San Antone

Give my troubled mind somewhere to go

Want to get lost in that old city

A stranger there may have some pity

What's around the bend, I'll never know

If I'm not on that train to San Antone

Gonna take the last train to San Antone
