Lyrics
I don?t want to drive the train like others do
I?m happy followin? along like the red caboose
You know life?s too short and time?s not mine to waste
I?m just happy when I get to finish the race
I don?t need to lead the parade down Center Street
I?m happy in the rear draggin? my feet
When you finally see me commin? I know you?ll say
He?s gonna be around to enjoy another day
I don?t want to drive the train
Gettin? ahead can drive you insane
I don?t want to drive the train
Happiness is my middle name
I don?t want to drive the train
Gettin? by if it?s all the same
It?s what I do, how about you
I don?t want to drive the train
Gettin? ahead can drive you insane
I don?t want to drive the train
Happiness is my middle name
I don?t want to drive the train
Gettin? by if it?s all the same
It?s what I do, how about you
Workin? all your life to make others rich
Isn?t the kind of life this o?l boy would pitch
Enjoy every day who cares if it?s without pay
I?m not as simple as some of you might say
I don?t want to drive the train like others do
I?m happy followin? along like the red caboose
You know life?s too short and time?s not mine to waste
I?m just happy when I get to finish the race
I don?t want to drive the train
Gettin? ahead can drive you insane
I don?t want to drive the train
Happiness is my middle name
I don?t want to drive the train
Gettin? by if it?s all the same
It?s what I do, how about you
It?s what I do, how about you
It?s what I do, how about you
