From the recording Money to Burn
Lyrics
Don’t ya know, I thought I saw it comin’
Ridin’ on a bad news train
You walked in and then you started strummin’
And I said, “Here I go again!”
CHORUS
Bad news train, Bad news train
Oh you’re nothing but a bad news train
Bad news train, bad news train
I’m riding on that same old line again.
Don’t you know, I should’ve seen you goin’
When I heard that rhythm on the track
You left town and y’ left me without knowing
If you’re ever coming back.
BRIDGE
I always love those players
And when they bend that steel
They take my heart for such a ride
I always wind up feeling that this time it’s real!
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I should’ve learned my lesson
But you can never tell
You play that song I want to hear
And the best of my intentions go to…well, well, well, well.
Don’t ya know, I thought I saw it comin’
Ridin’ on a bad news train
You walked in and then you started strummin’
And I said, “Here I go again!”
CHORUS
Bad news train, bad news train
Ah, take me for another ride again!
