Well I've been waiting here since early today,
Standing on the platform but there’s a delay,
Take me away from all this cold and grey,
Won’tcha hurry on down the line.
[Chorus]
Southbound train, southbound train,
Let me in and out of the rain,
Been waiting so long, but I don’t wanna complain,
I wanna go where the sun still shines.
My feet are freezing, and I’m feeling kinda blue,
Could be on my way to some place with a view,
Where the stars are bright and the skies are blue,
Won'tcha hurry on down the line.
[Chorus]
I wanna go where the sun still shines.
