If Love Was A Train

Michelle Shocked Michelle Shocked

If love was a train
I think I would ride a slow one
One that would ride thru the night
Making every stop
If love was a train
I would feel no pain and
I would never get off

If love was a train
I think I would ride me a long one
Hear me talking
I'm talking fifty boxcars long
Aw what's the use?
Most trains these days
Ain't got no engine
Much less no caboose Woo! Woo!

Look out here she comes
Look out there she goes

If love was a train
I'd throw my body on her tracks
If love was a train
I'd throw my body right down on her tracks
If love was a train
I would feel no pain as she
Rolled right down my back

But love ain't no train
More like a broncin' bull
And the most you got's 15 seconds
In the saddle
And even if you manage to ride
You are all shaken up inside
And it's gonna be a long time
Before you ride that bull again

If love was a train
But love ain't a train...
