Train on Time - Brian Patterson

Well, you know that I'm leavin come the break of day
Yeah, you know that I'm leavin come the break of day
Won't you get me to the train on time so I can earn my pay

Well, you know I got a woman waitin' at home
Yeah, you know I got a woman and she's waitin at home
Won't you get me to the train on time, she's all alone.

So come on, get me to the train on time.
Come on, get me to the train on time.
Yeah, yeah yeah well you either catchin' that early train
Or getting left behind. Lemme tell y'all a little story.

Well, I ain't seen home in over 40 days, I been workin like a fool
I took a job downtown because it pays, now I got to come home to you.
But that early morning train, you know it leaves so soon.

So come on, get me to the train on time
A come on, get me to the train on time.
You either catchin' that early train or gettin left behind. Here comes that train

You know people like to tell me not to hurry up, they say I gotta take my time.
And those people never had to earn an honest buck, while I'm sweatin for my dime, yeah.
Don't ya mess around with my money when I'm on the grind.

So come on, get me to the show on time.
Come on, get me to the show on time.
Yeah, yeah yeah well, don't you mess around with my money when I'm on the grind.
