Long Train Running

As performed by The Doobie Brothers
Hit # 8 on the Top 40 charts in 1973
A staple of the classic rock repertoire


Gather round the corner
Half a mile from here
See the long train run
And you'll watch em disappear
Without love, where would you be now
Without love.

I know I saw Miss Lucy
Down along the tracks
She lost her home and her family
And she won't be coming back,
Without love, where would you be now
Without love.

Well the Illinois Central,
And the Southern Central Freight,
Gotta keep on pushin momma,
Ya know they're runnin late
Without love, where would you be now
Without love.

The pistons keep on turnin',
And the wheels go round and round.
And the steel rails lie cold and hard,
On the mountains they go round
Without love, where would you be now
Without love.
