Big Train (from Memphis) - John Fogerty

When I was young, 
I spent my summer days 
Playin' on the track.
The sound of the wheels rollin'
Oon the steel took me out, took me back.

[Chorus:]
Big Train from Memphis, 
Big Train from Memphis,
Now it's gone gone gone, gone gone gone.

Like no one before, 
He let out a roar, 
And I just had to tag along.
Each night I went to bed 
With the sound in my head, 
And the dream was a song.

[Chorus]

Well I've rode 'em in 
And back out again 
You know what they say about trains;
But I'm tellin' you when 
That Memphis train came through,
This ol' world was not the same.

[Chorus]
