Songs with the word train, subway etc.

[Silver saucer]

Come on hurry
Ain't no time for worrying
Gotta go
Move on
Just leave the lights on
Grab some clothes,
Set those sights on
That four-lane road
I'm gone
In a truck, in a train,
In a car, in a bus,
Change my luck, can't stay
Goin' far, in a rush
Got that get away feeling
I'm leaving
Trust me
Something better's gotta be
Right around this next turn
Gonna be just fine
Toss the map don't look behind
Push that pedal down
Burn
Chorus
Here I go...
Leee-aaa-vvv-iiiiing
Ohhh...
In a truck, in a train,
In a car, in a bus,
Change my luck, can't stay
Goin' far, in a rush
White lines, exit signs,
Can't fly fast enough
Blacktop, railway, spinning wheels
Don't stop
Got that get away feeling
Got that get away feeling
I'm leeeeeeeeeeeeeee-avin'
I'm leavin'
I'm leavin'
I'm leavin'
Oh wheels don't stop
Yeah, I'm leaving

 

[Praying Colonel]

One of my favorite Rosanne Cash songs:

 

[BlueStarryHat]

Don't Sleep in the Subway- Petula Clark

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"The Metro," Berlin
I'm alone, sitting with my empty glass
My four walls follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train, I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there, swimming through apologies
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the Metro...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"The Train," The Roches
Once you step on
You might never get off
Of the commuter train
It doesn't go very far away
But just the same
It s a trip and a half...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Another Hundred People" from Company
Another hundred people just got off of the train
And came up through the ground,
While another hundred people just got off of the bus
And are looking around
At another hundred people who got off of the plane
And are looking at us
Who got off of the train
And the plane and the bus
Maybe yesterday...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Santa Fe" from Newsies
Let me go
Far away,
Somewhere they won't never find me,
And tomorrow won't remind me of today.
When the city's finally sleepin',
And the moon looks old and gray,
I get on a train that's bound for Sante Fe...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"The Kid," David Wilcox
As we're walking down toward the train station
I hear a whispering rainfall
Across the boulevard, you slip your hand in mine
In the distance the train's last call...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"The Locomotion," Little Eva
Now that you can do it, let's make a chain now
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)
A chugga-chugga motion like a railroad train now
(Come on, baby, do the loco-motion)...

[theluckyrabbit]

"The Power of Love," Huey Lewis and the News
You don't need money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
That's the power of love
That's the power of love...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"American Pie," Don McLean
And the three men I admire most
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Lullaby of Broadway," Ella Fitzgerald
Come on along and listen to
The lullaby of Broadway
The hip hooray and ballyhoo
The lullaby of Broadway
The rumble of a subway train
The rattle of the taxis
The daffodils who entertain
At Angelo's and Maxi's...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Laura," Nancy LaMott
And you see Laura on the train that is passing through
Those eyes, how familiar they seem
She gave your very first kiss to you
That was Laura but she's only a dream

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"You'd Be Surprised," Marilyn Monroe
On a streetcar or in a train
You'd think he was born
Without any brain...

And the wonderful Madeline Kahn:

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Hitchin' a Ride," Vanity Fare
I got no fare to ride a train
I'm nearly drowin' in the pourin' rain
Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride
Gotta get me home to my baby's side...

 

[BorderTenny]

Here's a production of Starlight Express. I think trains are mentioned at least a couple times.
