Cash, Johnny - 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
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 rythm, to the click-clack of the wheels
I'm gonna sing the blues 'cause that's the way that I feel
Gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train
Gonna ride a blue train, gonna ride a blue train
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 nothing 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

Cash, Johnny Blue Train Comments
Wonderful. RDR2 put me onto this song.
This pretty much old town road, but with a train.
The only man in black
Luther Perkins did as much to create that 'Johnny Cash sound' as Johnny did with his ' Perkins plink'.
🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪 get on board 🚂🚂🚂😁😁😁
Me and my bf love this song
Fantastic
Why wasn’t this song more popular???
can't you see
One of my cousins was a co-writer on this song,
We still love ya and miss ya Johnny!!
This is is my favorite Cash era. Johnny on vocals and acoustic guitar, Luther Perkins on lead guitar, Marshall Grant on upright bass, and (later on) W.S. Holland on drums. Sam Phillips knew how to capture the sound of the Tennessee Two backing up Johnny's voice and it was perfect. It's one of those magic moments in time when everything comes together.
ijosef Mine too!!
Badass = Johnny Cash
About as good as it gets.
I especially like the short train whistle sounding intro.
Great classic song
Marty Stuart covered this and it sounds just as good if you think nobody's carrying johnnys torch. Well marty is you should check him out

my friend remington blue set this as the music on his football highlight film lmao
Johnny, why'd you die on us boy? We need you. You were supposed to be immortal....
His songs are immortal and will still be played a zillion years from now..:)
Hey brother all hero’s must go on sometimes
He’s legend and he’ll never die. His music is remembered
This is one great song with exceptional lyrics. To the best of my knowledge and any history I have read about Sun Records, this song was never released as a single as either an A-Side or B-Side. Ain't that a shame?????
Sun 376
i thought i was getting housing for school and now i find out i can't afford it. I've been having to take the train since last semester and now I will again for this one
Another brilliant track from big john i agree with you laslos3
The emotion in this song, its unbearable, i cant listen to the song without singin along
His song were simple, but they spoke to everyone!!
Think ill get me a ticket for that train fellas.
I sang that to my little grandnephew Preston Blake center when he was a month old.
Two things I'm gonna buy him before too long:
A Johnny Cash CD and a Tom&Jerry DVD.
Long live JOHNNY CASH!!!!!!
God but I miss Johnny Cash!!!I wish God would send him back from Hillbilly Heaven
to show the"Pretty Boy Hat Acts"like Toby Keith and Trace Adkins what Country Music
was supposed to be!!
Thanks 4 Posting this ! :)
@elflordbob1 thank you very much sir you cant find anyone as good as people like you anymore
Music doesn't get any better than Johnny , Luther & Marshall
@ApathethicJustice like 2 hours longer
@sagemills im 11 and im the same.
Country needs more Johnny Cash!!
Screw Pretty boy hat Acts like Tim McGraw or Toby Keith!!
im 12 and i only like the 50s or bill haley, jhonny cash, and elvis
i'm just 15 years old, and i love this stuff, so cool! SO MUCH better than the crap teenagers listen to nowadays, but i love metal and stuff too! that ain't crap.
One of his best. It's got everything, it's about a train, lost love, Luther played great imitating the train rhythm and Johnny's somber voice just rolling and rolling.
this should be longer
too good
@laslos3
me either,hidden gems my friend ! :)
Man! What a song! I don't see why this wasn't as big a hit as Hey Porter or Folsom Prison Blues. Either way, I LOVE it!
