Yeah, the first chance I got, I was gone like a shot
I been some places where the train don't stop
Followin' that old dream of mine
And ride it to the end of the line
Yeah, some are satisfied just to sit on the side
But that ain't me, there's just too much to see
So pour on the coal, let the good times roll
Full speed ahead, no, I ain't stoppin' yet
But I never cared at all where it had been
Some places where the train don't even go
My life is like a Dixie Flyer
I feel that drivin' wheel down in my soul
Till the train runs out of track
Till the train runs out of track
My life is like a Dixie Flyer
I always wondered where the train was goin'
My only desire was to catch that flyer
She don't ever look back
She don't ever look back
Gonna roll until the day that I die
So pour on the coal, let the good times roll
Till the train runs out of track
And watch as the trains roll by
