Golden Arrow

(album: Energized - 1974)

Standing on the bridge, peeking through the crack,
See the Golden Arrow go rolling down the track,
Must've been the fastest train I've ever seen,
Eyes wide open as I watch that gold machine.

See the train coming and I heard the whistle blow,
Like a flash of' lightning, the arrow shining gold,
Felt so excited, left my troubles way behind,
See the Golden Arrow go rolling down the line.

Rolling, rolling in the rain
Rolling, rolling in the rain
Rolling, rolling in the rain
Will I ever ride that train?

Dark clouds rolling, it's another rainy day,
Early in the morning, I have to get away,
Standing on the bridge and I'm feeling kinda sad,
Line's all deserted and I feel so bad.

Rolling, rolling in the rain Rolling, rolling in the rain,
Rolling, rolling in the rain
Will I ever ride that train?

[Rod solo]

Yea-ee-yea
Rolling, rolling in the rain Rolling, rolling in the rain,
Rolling, rolling in the rain
Will I ever ride that train?

[Instrumental]

Rolling, rolling in the rain Rolling, rolling in the rain
Rolling, rolling in the rain
Will I ever ride that train?

Yea,
Whoo!
Gotta keep rollin'!
