Story behind the song
THIS SONG RELATES HOW WE TRACK THROUGH OUR LIFES, IF WE ARE FORTUNATE TO COMPLETE ONE!
Lyrics
WERE ON THE SMOKE TRAIN BABY RIGHT ON TRACK,
THE JOURNEY IS A BIG ONE AND WERE NOT COMING BACK,
RIDING MY LIFE AWAY EVERY DAY,
YOU KNOW I STILL LOVE BABY YOU WHAT CAN I SAY,
WERE ON THE SMOKE TRAIN BABY RIGHT ON TRACK,
SMOKE IN THE DISTANCE AND WE CAN,T COME BACK,
GONE THROUGH MANY STATIONS IN OUR LIFES,
ALL THE RISKS WE TAKEN BUT WE STILL SURVIVED!
NEVER THOUGHT THIS JOURNEY WOULD BE SO QUICK,
WERE STILL TRACKING FORWARD DON,T LOOK BACK,
WERE ON THE SMOKE TRAIN BABY NOT COMING BACK,
THE TRACK STILL PLENTY AND WE WON,T LOOK BACK.
TRACKING UP THE HIGHS AND SCOOTING DOWN THE LOWS,
EVERYONE TAKES THIS RIDE THIS WE KNOW,
UNKNOWN DESTINATION IS WHERE WERE AT,
AT LEAST WE,VE HAD A RIDE BABY THATS WHERE WERE SAT,
WERE ON THE SMOKE TRAIN BABY NOT COMING BACK.
SMOKE TRAIN!!
SMOKE TRAIN!
WERE ON THE SMOKE TRAIN,
SMOKE TRAIN!
WERE ON THE SMOKE TRAIN BABY AND WERE NOT COMING BACK,
THE TRAIN IS IN THE DISTANCE AND WE KNOW WHERE ITS AT.
