Ain't it funny how time goes by
People grow up, get old and die
And there's so much I want to see
So you know what that means
Mother, I'm leaving on the next train
It's nothing personal, but I'm leaving, believe it
I don't want to be stuck here forever
Gonna go outside, get out of here
And there's so much I have to say
Don't worry ma, I'll be back someday
Mother, I'm leaving on the next train
It's nothing personal, but I'm leaving, believe it
Mother, I'm leaving on the next train
It's nothing personal, but I'm leaving, believe it
