Janis Ian - On the Train lyrics

[Janis Ian - On the Train lyrics]

When I was on the train, I said
"I said I always wanted
To see the sun someday
Would you please take up the shade?"

Mr president, his face went red
And he said, "Kid
You should have come before I came
Would you please remove your face"

I'm on the train
And I'm trying to make it away
I'm on the train
They keep on trying to make me ashamed
So many funny people in life today
(Chooga, chooga, Chooga, chooga)
