[00:15.68]	I had a job, I had a girl
[00:19.30]	I had something going mister in this world
[00:23.51]	I got laid off down at the lumber yard
[00:27.48]	Our love went bad, times got hard
[00:31.70]	Now I work down at the carwash
[00:34.71]	Where all it ever does is rain
[00:39.75]	Don′t you feel like you′re a rider on a downbound train
[00:47.42]	She just said "Joe I gotta go
[00:51.50]	We had it once we ain′t got it any more"
[00:55.29]	She packed her bags left me behind
[00:59.43]	She bought a ticket on the Central Line
[01:03.37]	Nights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whining
[01:07.57]	I feel her kiss in the misty rain
[01:11.59]	And I feel like I′m a rider on a downbound train
[01:36.20]	Last night I heard your voice
[01:39.27]	You were crying, crying, you were so alone
[01:43.61]	You said your love had never died
[01:48.04]	You were waiting for me at home
[01:51.80]	Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods
[01:55.66]	I ran till I thought my chest would explode
[02:00.06]	There in the clearing, beyond the highway
[02:04.57]	In the moonlight, our wedding house shone
[02:08.08]	I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door
[02:12.10]	My head pounding hard, up the stairs I climbed
[02:16.37]	The room was dark, our bed was empty
[02:20.64]	Then I heard that long whistle whine
[02:24.70]	And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried
[02:32.53]	Now I swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang
[02:36.64]	Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain
[02:40.63]	Now don′t it feel like you′re a rider on a downbound train

[00:15.68]	I had a job, I had a girl
[00:19.30]	I had something going mister in this world
[00:23.51]	I got laid off down at the lumber yard
[00:27.48]	Our love went bad, times got hard
[00:31.70]	Now I work down at the carwash
[00:34.71]	Where all it ever does is rain
[00:39.75]	Don t you feel like you re a rider on a downbound train
[00:47.42]	She just said " Joe I gotta go
[00:51.50]	We had it once we ain t got it any more"
[00:55.29]	She packed her bags left me behind
[00:59.43]	She bought a ticket on the Central Line
