He had such a short attention span   He was born with restlessness in his soul   She was well aware from the moment it began   This rollin stone would have to go   Who can blame him   If he's true to his hearts desire   Who can blame him   If he can't put out the fire   Who can blame him   If his feet were meant to run   If he likes the morning sun upon his back   Well you might as well blame the freight train    For loving the railroad track      She could see the sparkle disappear    As things came familiar to his eyes   She could sense time was drawin near   When you want it to stop    Its funny how time flies      Who can blame him   If he's true to his hearts desire   Who can blame him   If he can't put out the fire   Who can blame him   If his feet were meant to run   If he likes the morning sun upon his back   Well you might as well blame the freight train    For loving the railroad track      Now he'll keep her memory near his heart   But he'll keep his conscious clean   Cause he told no lies and she knew right from the start   He could never be tied to a Nine to Five routine      Now we all have our addictions    And wonder lust is one   Some cherish their restrictions    They stop and stare but he liked movin on      Who can blame him   If he's true to his hearts desire   Who can blame him   If he can't put out the fire   Who can blame him   If his feet were meant to run   If he likes the morning sun upon his back   Well you might as well blame the freight train    For loving the railroad track      Well you might as well blame the freight train    For loving the railroad track
