Johnny Cash – Blue Train from All Aboard the Blue Train, 1962.

Johnny Cash – Blue Train Lyrics:

There’s an engine at the station and the whistle calls my name
It’s callin’ callin’ callin’, Come and get aboard the train
My baby’s gone and I’m alone to live in misery
I’m gonna call and make a reservation for me

Gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train
Gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train

I’m gonna climb aboard and ride until I learn to smile
I’ll be knockin’ out the blues while I’m knockin’ out the miles
With my guitar, beat, and rhythm, to the click-clack of the wheels
I’m gonna sing the blues ’cause that’s the way that I feel

I’m gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train
Gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train

Conductor, go and tell the man to shovel on the coal
It doesn’t seem half as bad as long as I can roll
Give me another ticket and I’ll stay and ride with you
There’s nothin’ left to live for in this world we’re rollin’ through

Gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train
Gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train

File this under random crap about me that no one cares about.

I guess I’ve always been a sci-fi fan. My mom says Star Trek was my favorite show when I was four or five. I saw all three Star Wars movies in the theater when they came out. Damn I feel old! Here’s me at age 6 1/2 with my ‘DARTH VADAR [sic] LIVES’ T-Shirt. “VADAR?” I wonder if my shirt was counterfeit….

I don’t use Facebook for anything other than silly stuff, like the LivingSocial application. I thought I’d repost some of them here.

Apparently this song was used in the new Star Trek movie, which rocked by the way, because Mr. Shatner couldn’t pronounce “sabotage” correctly. A lot of people had a problem with the song being in the movie, but I think it worked really well for the scene. I’ve always loved the music video for Sabotage. Enjoy!
