Some roads are only seen at night.
Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs.
But some nights the neon gas gets free
And turns into walking dead like me.

And I´ve been making promises I know I´ll never keep.
One of these days I´m gonna leave you in your sleep.
I´ll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

I know that you were never young,
And I know you prob´ly won´t get old.
But honey, nobody´s gonna hurt you anymore.
And nobody´s gonna make you wanna die.

And I´ve been making promises I know I´ll never keep.
One of these days I´m gonna leave you in your sleep.
I´ll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

I´ll go some cold and gray morning.
And you won´t remember anything.
But some people don´t believe in time.
And some of us don´t believe in life.

And I´ve been making promises I know I´ll never keep.
One of these days I´m gonna leave you in your sleep.
I´ll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

Baby, I was born on a train...
Baby, I was born on a train...
