It Takes A Lot To Laugh It Takes A Train To Cry - Marianne Faithfull

Well, I ride on a mailtrain, baby

Can’t buy a thrill

Well, I’ve been up all night

Leanin' on the window sill

Well, if I die

On top of the hill

And if I don’t make it

You know my baby will

Don’t the moon look good, mama

Shinin' through the trees?

Don’t the brakeman look good, mama

Flagging down the «Double E»?

Don’t the sun look good

Going down over the sea?

But don’t my gal look fine

When she’s comin' after me?

Well, the wintertime is coming

The windows are filled with frost

I went to tell everybody

But I could not get across

Well, I wanna be your lover, baby

I don’t wanna be your boss

Don’t say I never wanted you

When your train gets lost
