the train to better

a little bird found a pencil and some paper........
The Train To Better
Take me to a lifePut me on the trainWhere forgiveness is a givenNobody left standing in the rainCause people are all the sameEverybody’s suffered painC’mon board and ride to betterC’mon board, there’s room for allC’mon in and take a load offLet’s go todayPeople were rushing byBarely noticed the old man standing byStrumming on his guitarSomethin’ bout riding this old trainSome folks tossed a coinSome folks never sawThat the loneliness is this old manWas the lonely in us allHe saw me sitting thereCrying in the rainHe handed me a ticketSaid take my seat todayGo on now, take itSo many yearsBarely holding onI had no right to that trainBeaten down by so sorrowI was so afraidHe sang C’mon board and ride to betterC’mon board there’s room for allC’mon in and take a load offLet’s go today
hugs.....it's raining, let's ride the train to better.

As usual, Little Sparrow, you have done a wonderful & beautiful job. Really enjoyed reading it, but as usual my weird brain started thinking about the possible trains I could ride today.

So far I have come up with \"The Last Train to Clarksville\" by The Monkees, \"The Hooterville Express\" on \"Petticoat Junction\", \"The City of New Orleans\" by several but mainly Arlo Gurhrie & \"The Long Black Train\" by Josh Turner. Add to that the train Kenny Rogers was riding when he sang, \"You\'ve Got to Know When to Fold Them.\"

Notice how when you add Christian music to the mix, they often sing about ships being the way to travel.

However; as most I seem to be at the bus or train station when my ship comes in. Such is life.

Thanks for the uplifting words today.
