[Verse 1]

When I jumped off, I had a bucket full of thoughts

When I first jumped off I held that bucket in my hand

Ideas that would take me all around the world

I stood and watched the smoke behind the mountain curl

[Hook]

It took me a long time to get back on the train

[Verse 2]

Now I'm gone and I'll never look back again

I'm gone and I'll never look back at all

You know I'll never look back again

I turn my face into the howlin' wind

[Hook]

It took me a long time to get back on the train

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

See my face in the town that's flashin' by

See me standin' in the station in the rain

See me runnin' there beside the car

I left it all behind me and I've traveled far

[Hook]

It took me a long time to get back on the train

[Verse 1]

When I jumped off, I had a bucket full of thoughts

When I first jumped off I held that bucket in my hand

Ideas that would take me all around the world

I stood and watched the smoke behind the mountain curl

[Hook]

It took me a long time to get back on the train

It took me a long time to get back on the train

It took me a long time to get back on the train
