Westbound 66 - Westbound Train

Just another sleepy town
Where dreams are rarely bound
She's young and dreaming anyway
Her daddy's long gone
She never knew him none
And momma sleeps all damn day
They say that's such a shame
Like that's her end game
But she's got plans of her own
She wants a brand new start
for her hungry heart
Her bags are packed she's leaving today
She's got a ticket on a Westbound Train
Out there down line
She knows she can find
Something better then what they had in mind
When she finds that sunset
And her heart says this is it
She can hear it call her name
On a Westbound Train
On a Westbound Train
Now she's got a big nice house
A doctor that takes her out
But the walls are paper thin
She was just a pretty face
One for him to chase
But he's bored and out again
He thought this was enough
Especially where she came from
But he never really thought she'd go
She didn't come this far
To sell her heart
Loves not suppose to feel this way
She's leaving on a Westbound Train
Out there down line
She knows she can find
Something better then what they had in mind
When she finds that sunset
And her heart says this is it
She can hear it call her name
On a Westbound Train
On a Westbound Train
She's laughing through the pain
Drinking cheap champagne
As the past fades in the window
They can try and stop her
But she's stronger
Then anybody knows
Out there down line
She knows she can find
Something better then what they had in mind
When she finds that sunset
And her heart says this is it
She can hear it call her name
On a Westbound Train
It's calling her name
On a Westbound Train
On a Westbound Train
She can hear
She can hear it
Calling her name
