When I was young, I spent my summer days playin? on the track.
The sound of the wheels rollin? on 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.
