One day after twenty-five years Head of service at the local Sears Helen Walker put her pencil down and walked away And all they found was a little note 'Adios' was all she wrote But as she left, someone heard her say
"Gonna buy me a ticket to the end of the line Wanna feel the air, breathe the countryside As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied Gonna ride, ride, ride"
Saturday night I was down at Joe's He was moppin' up gettin' ready to close He sat down and poured me one last brew And he said to me with a sideways glance "If I ever get the chance I'm gonna sell this joint, and this is what I'll do"
"Gonna buy me a ticket to the end of the line Wanna feel the air, breathe the countryside As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied Gonna ride, ride, ride"
I suppose I could stay In this little town 'til my dying day But in my heart I know I've gotta go So I'm standin' at the station waitin' for the train Don't know when I'll be back again Mr. Engineer, won't you let your whistle blow
Got me a ticket to the end of the line Wanna feel the air, breathe the countryside As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied Gonna ride, ride, ride
As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied Gonna ride, ride, ride Gonna ride, ride, ride
