The Foghat Jump That Train lyrics

I gotta run 'cause I hear it comin', I gotta jump that train
I gotta run 'cause I hear it comin', I gotta jump that train
I got tears in my eyes like fallin' rain, that's why I'm ridin' the blues train

John Lee Hooker had it all figured out
When he said, "It's in you and it's got to come out"
I believe it's true 'cause it worked for me before
If ain't right the first time, try it once more
No need to tell you 'cause it's understood
And it feels so good, yes, it feels so good

I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
I got tears in my eyes like fallin' rain
I got to jump, jump that train, I got to jump, jump that train
I got to jump, jump that train, that's why I'm ridin' the blues train

Jenny's got a face twice as long as a kite
'Cause she didn't get everything she wanted last night
Her daddy's got money and she should be satisfied
With her brand new roller and a pony to ride
Wants to find a lover, needs to be understood

And I know she could, yet I know she could

I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
I got tears in my eyes like fallin' rain, that's why I'm ridin' the blues train
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

I gotta jump, jump that train, I gotta jump, jump that train
I got to jump, jump that train

I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
I got to run 'cause I hear it comin', I got to jump that train
Whoo!

Jump that train, jump that train, c'mon, baby
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
