Oh you've been on a fast train and it's going off the rails
And you can't come back, can't come back again
And you start breaking down
In the pouring rain
Oh you've been on a fast train
And your lover has gone away don't it make you feel sad
And you’re gone on a journey way into the land
And you start breaking down
'Cos you're under strain
And you’re jumping on, yes, you’re jumping on a fast train
Got to go on the lam, stuck in no-man's land
Ain't nobody here on your waveband
Ain't nobody gonna land you a helping hand
And you start breaking down
And you go to the sound
Would you hear that fast train
And you keep on moving on to the sound of the wheels
Oh deep down in your heart do you really know how you feel
Then you start breaking down, go into the pain
Keep on moving on a fast train
Well we’re over the lane next thing you're out of your mind
And you're out of your depth as through the window she crept
Oh there's nowhere to go in the sleet and the snow
Just keep on moving on a fast train
You got to go on the lam, stuck in no-man's land
Ain't nobody on your waveband
Gonna land you a helping hand
And you're all alone can you really make it on your own
Keep on moving on a fast train
Oh you going nowhere else
How long can it last
On a fast train
Keep on keep on moving keep on moving on a fast train
Go through the desert and the prairie and sand through all of the worst and fool’s man's land
Across the desert sand through the barren waste land
