Now you just told me that you’re leaving
On the next train coming down
I love you dear but I won’t follow
I just think I’ll stay around

For someday I know you’ll want me
When your true love can’t be found
But if you go dear I won’t follow
I just think I’ll stay around

Now you’ll admit I’ve always loved you
And I’d never let you down
But if you go dear I won’t follow
I just think I’ll stay around

Someday I’ll hear that whistle blowing
On the special coming down
And you’ll be looking for me baby
But I may not be around

[1] Now you just told me that you’re leaving
On the next train coming [5] down
I [1] love you dear but I won’t [4] follow
[1] I just [5] think I’ll stay [1] around

[4] For someday I know you’ll [1] want me
When your true love can’t be [5] found
But [1] if you go dear I won’t [4] follow
[1] I just [5] think I’ll stay [1] around

Now you’ll admit I’ve always loved you
And I’d never let you down
But if you go dear I won’t follow
I just think I’ll stay around

Someday I’ll hear that whistle blowing
On the special coming down
And you’ll be looking for me baby
But I may not be around
