Well I've been hopping freight trains all my life
I woke up cold and hungry in the middle of the night
I've been on the wrong end of a drunkard's night
And nowhere to send the letters that I write
And now and then I've seen most every single town
But never stopped quite long enough to ever hang around
'Cause that whistle makes a mighty lonesome sound
It's been on my mind, I'd love to settle down

And I don't wanna ride the rails no more
I wanna know, oh, is love worth dying for?
Hear children playing through an old screen door
No I don't wanna ride the rails no more

The train's pulling up at half past nine
The waitress said, "Hey stranger, how 'bout one more glass of wine?"
We kept talking and we lost our own track of time
The train pulled out, left us there behind

And I don't wanna ride the rails no more
I wanna know, oh, is love worth dying for?
Hear children playing through an old screen door
No I don't wanna ride the rails no more

For the first time in my life I didn't run
I felt your arms around me and my rambling days were done
Something changed deep inside of me
The radio played Love Is All You Need

Oh I don't wanna ride the rails no more
I wanna know, oh, is love worth dying for?
Hear children playing through an old screen door
No I don't wanna ride the rails no more
Oh I don't wanna ride the rails no more
I wanna know, oh, is love worth dying for?
Hear children playing through an old screen door
No I don't wanna ride the rails no more
No I don't wanna ride the rails no more
No I don't wanna ride the rails no more
