The Uptown Train

If I stop – and think about it

I'm either stone cold certain

Or more inclined to doubt it

But when you jump into the darkness

Well I take off my hat

You've changed

They say –

You can know when to play or to hold

And they think they can show all that glitters is gold

And they don't care to go where you go 'cause they know you're insane

When you change

To the Uptown Train

Well I knew – that you were trouble

You were a ten time loser

Or maybe even double

But you pulled some kind of rabbit

From your hippie hat

You've changed

They say –

Take it slow when you're breaking the mold

Got to pay what you owe or be out in the cold

And they don't care to know what you know or to go through the pain

To change

To the Uptown Train
