Lyrics

The Santa Fe Train Don't Go To Santa Fe

I asked her where she was going
Said she's going to Santa Fe
Would she mind if I came too
She said OK if you're going that way
I asked how long will she be there
Said she'd have to wait and see
Could be a while might be longer
If she finds what she needs

And that Santa Fe train it don't go to Santa Fe
You gotta drive all night you gotta drive all day
So we sang and laughed to pass the miles away
And I sure am glad that Santa Fe train don't go to Santa Fe

We broke down in the Cumberland's
A little town in County Clay
I took a job for the new transmission
She found us a place to stay
One thing lead another thing followed
'Fore you know some time had passed
Had no plans for tomorrow
And no plans for going back

Chorus

Twenty five years five kids later
We're still in that little town
Now I own Dan's Transmission
She does the books she's got it down
Life is sweet just gets sweeter
No regrets and no complaints
The only thing we never did
Is never did get to Santa Fe

Chrous
