There's a road that runs through the desert   Another that leads to the sea   I keep my map secure in my wallet   'Cause someday I just might leave, I just might leave      I'm feeling buried alive in Arkansas   So much clean air, I can't breathe   I got a horoscope that says I'm a winner   And a few good ideas up my sleeve      So come on girl, we'll leave tonight   On the next train out of my mind   We'll look out on the world   From the next train out of my mind      I got magazines with pictures of cites   Messin' up my mama's car   I got an infomercial number   Connection to make me a star      So come on girl, we'll leave tonight   On the next train out of my mind   We'll look out at the world   From the next train out of my mind, out of my mind      (solo)      Somebody already climbed every mountain   Somebody already walked on the moon   Ain't nothing left to discover   Ain't no reason to leave this room   And when I get up in the morning   And I stand there paralyzed   'Cause I look at my own reflection   You know I'm seeing my old man's eyes      So come on girl, we'll leave tonight   On the next train out of my mind   We'll look out on the world   From the next train out of my mind      Come on girl, we'll leave tonight   On the next train out of my mind   We'll look out at the world   From the next train out of my mind      I got magazines with pictures of cities   They're messin' up my mama's car   I need to get me a Mel Bay book   And learn how to play guitar   Play guitar
