Freight train, why am I, I'm arriving late tonight
And the world is turning round and round the sun
All the places spinning by and by, one by one
Comin' home, I'm on time, been gone such a long time
Goodbye traveling, so long to the boys in the band
Goodbye traveling, so long to the boys in the band
We play tunes today, leaving memory of yesterday
As the circle widens, setting in the sun
All the seasons spinning all the days, one by one
Comin' back before long, comin' back till I'm gone
Goodbye traveling, so long to the boys in the band
Goodbye traveling, so long to the boys in the band
