Lyrics
Wave your flag and stop the train (stop the train, stop the train), (2)
Someone just pulled the little chain.
A girl in my compartment lost her mind
And tried to throw herself upon the line.
I can’t see you leaving her behind. (2)
She doesn’t quite remember who I am.
Committing suicide was more her plan,
Claims she was attached to another man.

Wave your flag and stop the train (stop the train, stop the train), (2)
Someone just pulled the little chain.
Tried to tell the Signal Man in time,
She’s still trying to jump out on the line.
I can’t see you leaving her behind.
I can’t figure out what grips her mind.
I can’t hold her down, she’s gone out of time.
I see her reflection on the line.
Gates and railroad stations pass me by,
I can’t see you leaving her behind.
Wave your flag and stop the train (stop the train, stop the train), (2)
Someone just pulled the little chain.
