Lyrics

Her love hit me with all the fury of a Texas tornado
She was a sleek steam liner cruisin’ down a four track main
I was headin’ westward she was goin’ eastbound
But we derailed on a one way course for heartbreak

And those trains they kept a rollin’
Rollin’ on rollin’ down the tracks
We were a train wreck just waitin’ to happen
Once the wheels were in motion there was no turning back
No turning’ back

Fast and lean I was flying the route of the eagle
She had style and class but was
She was painted in a two tone gray
Like a strong willed iron horse with plenty of muscle
She left a cloud of dust smokin’ in her wake

And those trains they kept a rollin’
Rollin’ on rollin’ down the tracks
We were a train wreck just waitin’ to happen
Once the wheels were in motion there was no turning back
No turning’ back

I could hear her warning whistle off in the distance
But I didn’t listen oh no…..

So those trains we kept a rollin’
Rollin’ on rollin’ down the tracks
We were a train wreck just waitin’ to happen
A train wreck rollin’ down the tracks
We were a train wreck once those wheels were in motion
We were a train wreck in a tunnel of love so black
