Sittin on the stoop
Watching the sunrise
Eating a scoop
Of blackberry ice cream
Your mother made
With her own two hands
Holding onto something
Then you hear a choo choo train, chuggalin a long,
laughing out your name,
wanna sing a song,
wanna do a dance,
Wanna do a jig,
wanna laugh and laugh through everything
Well, you hopped that train
When you were sixteen
You couldn't help it
You wanted to be mean
Ride so tough
In the back line
Nobody knew that you were missing,
That you were missing
Then you hear a choo choo train, chuggalin a long, laughing out your name, wanna sing a song, wanna do a dance, Wanna do a jig, wanna laugh and laugh through everything, through everything
Well role me a cigarette oh please
Give me some of that
Good nicotine
If I was five again I'd say
Hold me up,
I'll smoke all day
I'll smoke all day
Then you hear a choo choo train, chuggalin a long, laughing out your name, wanna sing a song, wanna do a dance, Wanna do a jig, wanna laugh and laugh through everything, through everything
Then you hear a choo choo train, chuggalin a long, laughing out your name, wanna sing a song, wanna do a dance, Wanna do a jig, wanna laugh and laugh through everything, through everything
