When I see the goods train
With the boxes
Tumbling,
Dragged to,
Getting pulled down
Naturally,
Running day and night,
Night and day
Without any respite
Or rest
Going,
Going incessantly,
The train,
Goods train
With the boxes,
Wagons,
Dragging,
Pulling,
Hurtling,
Rushing down,
Down
Without any respite
Or rest
The goods train,
Goods train,
Halted and stopped
Frequently
So often
At halts and junctions
Sidelined and sidetracked,
Made to rest and waiting,
Waiting for
While on the other
Letting the passenger
And fast trains go,
Speed by.
