This was one of the great dance songs at my brother’s 60th birthday party yesterday, and I just can’t get it out of my head.
The trains were running late this weekend, too, slowed down by technical trouble cased by the heatwave.
Down around the corner, half a mile from here
See those long trains running, and you watch them disappear
Without love, where would you be now
Without love
You know I saw Miss Lucy down along the tracks
She lost her home and her family and she won’t be coming back
Without love, where would you be right now
Without love
Well there’s the Illinois Central
And the Southern Central freight
You got to keep on pushing mama
I know they’re running late
Without love, where would you be now na na now
Without love
Well there’s the Illinois Central
And the Southern Central freight
You got to keep on pushing mama
You know they’re running late
Without love, where would you be now
Without love
Well distance keep on turning
and the wheels go round and round
and the steel reels are cooling hard
and the mountain ain’t going down
Without love, where would you be right now
Without
Where would you be now
Mmm..ooh you got to get the baby thing
I want to move it down
I want to move it down
Baby baby baby babe oh won’t you move it down
There’s a big train running
With the train I’m moving on
I got to keep on moving, keep on moving
