[Verse 1]
Ten miles off the rural route was the farm I grew up on
My daddy's life was between the rows, I just wanted to be gone
Days are long and the sun is hot workin' tobacco land
You got big city dreams and the hoe don't fit your hands

[Chorus]
I remember how I dreamed about the day I'd ride
Those big steel wheels to Dallas and leave this farm behind
Someday to see the city, meet a girl who'd be my wife
And I owe it all to that ol' train to save me from this life

[Verse 2]
That lonesome railroad whistle was music to my ears
That midnight train could one day be my tickеt outta here
A country boy was longin' to be rollin' down thе line
And every night I'd ride the rails, if only in my mind

[Verse 3]
It broke my daddy's heart, but our plans just weren't the same
He wanted me to work this land to carry on his name
I'm headed out to live a dream that's always been mine
Today ol' train, I'm ready to leave this farm behind
[Chorus]
I remember how I dreamed about the day I'd ride
Those big steel wheels to Dallas and leave this farm behind
Someday to see the city, meet a girl who'd be my wife
And I owe it all to that ol' train to save me from this life
