The Neville Brothers

Mystery Train

Train arrive 16 coaches long

Train arrive 16 coaches long

Well, that long black train

Got my baby go

Train, train, rolling around the bend

Train, train, rolling around the bend

Well, it took my baby

'Way from me again

Come down to the station

Meet my baby at the gate

I ask the station master

If that train is running late

He said, "If you're waitin'

On that four forty four

I hate to tell you, son

Train don't stop here anymore"

Train arrive comin' down at night

Train arrive comin' down at night

Well, it took my baby

Left for me behind

Heard that whistle blowing

It was the middle of the night

When I got down to the station

Train was pullin' out of sight

Mystery train smoking down the track

Mystery train, yeah, smoking down the track

Well, I don't want to ride, just bring my baby back
