there's a train going by

and the railroad cars

rush away like the days in the year

and i'm waving goodbye

cause something is leaving

but things are not how they appear



goodbye cruel world

i'm not going with you

watching you fade away

i won't even miss you

so cool and hard

good times are coming our way



there's a field of golden grass

just growing

clouds moving over the sky

one dark horse just won't run

don't ask me to push her by



so long cruel world...



from now on that whistle blowing

it's a false alarm i won't be going down there



there's a train going by

just an aching pain

just a little brown bruise

and i'm waving goodbye

cause something is leaving

a cow's jumping over the moon



goodbye cruel world...
