I remember when we were kids
Takin' chances, all the crazy things we did
We'd race our bikes beside the railroad tracks
And chase that train like it was never comin' back

Well I'm still chasin' that train
Still chasin' that train...

One by one, my friends all settled down
Raisin' families with a house in town
And though they laugh when we recall old times
They look at me with disbelieving eyes

Cause I'm still chasin' that train...

Well, who'd have guessed that I would play this part
Nothin's cured me of a restless heart
Forever runnin' in the rain
Still chasin' that train

Twenty years have disappeared somehow
The tracks are overgrown and rusted now
But in my mind I still can hear the wail
And in my heart I know when all else fails

I will be still chasin' that train
Still chasin' that train
