I read the Colors this mornin' I read the Colors today About a man who left from nowhere to be someone And every day he has to pay in every way I met a man from New York City He spoke of things I've yet to find A good man driven from his homeland Tryin' to find some piece of mind It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train It's a fast train
