lyrics

Ballerina, señorita, in the hallway,
Leaning against the wall
Restless lady, lonely skies, sad sad eyes
Are peering through the rain
(she asks me)

CHORUS
When is the train going downtown?
When is the train going down?
When is the train rolling downtown?
When is the train going down?

Life’s broken promise, disillusion, mad confusion,
Let me comfort you my dear
When will we get there to the blissful city?
Lord have pity
Is our hope all in vain?

CHORUS
When is the train going downtown?
...

Night has fallen, let me guide you outside
Feel the fresh breeze; we’ll follow the morning dawn
Take the thorny path to the moonshine mountain
Uncover your eyes, you’ll be surprised by the view you’ll get

CHORUS
Still the trains are running downtown
...

(Solo)

CHORUS
Ooohh, light’s flickering uptown
Yeah, light’s flickering uptown
Ooohh, light’s flickering uptown
Yeah, light’s flickering uptown

Georg never travels without a guitar. So whereever he goes his songs will follow. But the while his style is like rock-on-the-road quieter moments allow some rest along the way.
