When The Train Comes Lyrics

People born here well they die here too 
Too many years same point of view 
Got to hear some different sounds 
Got to get me out of this town
When the train comes
Mama dreams of paintin' the sky 
Daddy shakes his head can't figure out why 
Both think I'm crazy and they tell me so but 
Mama's face say she wanna go
When the train comes
Got a boy who wants to be my man 
I try to tell him he don't understand 
His world is measured in acres of land 
I tell him goodbye he won't let go of my hand
When the train comes
No more dry seasons 
My life will be my own 
No more wishin' on rainbows 
Or the trains goin' by
Moments come and I can see 
Train in the distance comin' for me 
I look back one last glance 
Mama says girl it's your only chance
When the train comes
