When I was young, I spent my summer days, playin' on the track The sound of the wheels, rollin' on the steel, took me out, took me back Big Train from Memphis, Big Train from Memphis Now it's gone - gone - gone, gone - gone - gone
Like no one before, he let out a roar, and I just had to tag along Each night, I went to bed with the sound in my head, and the dream was a song Big Train from Memphis, Big Train from Memphis Now it's gone - gone - gone, gone - gone - gone
Well, I've rode him in and back out again You know what they say about trains But I'm tellin' you when that Memphis Train came through This ol' world was not the same Big Train from Memphis, Big Train from Memphis Now it's gone - gone - gone, gone - gone - gone
