Irene (x2) Lyrics by Railroad Jerk

We Understand

0

I went down to the railroad and watched the train roll by
But the man on the track said the company closed and I could not ride
I could not ride
So I booked a flight for the next night and I made no delay
But the plane burst into flames and we rolled off the runway
Off the runway
I made good time in a pickup truck when I saw the police lights
But they pulled me over by the side of the river and read me my rights
Read my rights
Well, Irene, Irene, I'm on my way
But I don't think I'll make it there today
No way
Yeah
Well, I got a good deal on a Subaru and I filled it up with gas
But the toll booth wanted exact change and I did not have
I did not have
I put my money on a ten-to-one and I lost what I owed
But I made it back in time to get back on the road
On the road
I rode in a boat to Buffalo and a Greyhound to Fort Wayne
Now I'm calling from this telephone long-distance to explain
To explain
Irene, Irene, I'm on my way
But I don't think I'll make it there today
Irene, Irene
Irene!
Irene!
Irene!
