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 I know someday 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

You know my dear I'll always love 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 you'll hear that whistle blowing
On the special coming down
You'll be looking for me baby
But I may not be around
