Matt Angel - Gonna Take That Train [Demo] Lyrics

Never won the lottery
But, I played it all my life
Haven't made it as a movie star
Or seen my name in lights
But my time's a comin'
I know I'm going to go some place
When my luck comes around
I'm gonna leave this town
I'm gonna take that train

I'm gonna take that train
Give my life a change
I'm gonna take that train
Make myself a name
Go out West where the warm winds blow
Head down South and find a woman to hold
Send a letter to the folks back home
I'm gonna take that train

I'm tired of the corn fields
The boring old country nights
There has to be something better
In those big city skylines
I've never seen the ocean
Or walked on a beach after it rained
I want to open my eyes to a different sunrise
I'm gonna take that train

I'm gonna take that train
Give my life a change
I'm gonna take that train
Make myself a name
Go out West where the warm winds blow
Head down South and find a woman to hold
Send a letter to the folks back home
I'm gonna take that train

People in this town don't believe in my dreams
Have negative things to say
I won't let it blow me off course
Or stand in my way

I'm gonna take that train
Give my life a change
I'm gonna take that train
Make myself a name
Go out West where the warm winds blow
Head down South and find a woman to hold
Send a letter to the folks back home
I'm gonna take that train

Yeah I'll send a letter to the folks back home
When I take that train
