lyrics

You won't hear no whistle blownin', on the old freight line,
The calfornia airports, replaced that old Carolina whine
And you can't find a needle, to fit your old time groove
The record's long since out of print, but it still plays as part of you

At the times when new improvements feel a lot like being beat
When you’re just as good as you used to be but you still feel obsolete
when you wish they’d work on you before they go build some something new
Don't you envy the wheels for charging through, just trust your own two feet

In the allies there's still cobble stone, though the main streets have been paved
and all towns best regulars still haven't changed their ways
I still hear them late at night singing ballads of times gone dusty
And the old piano may be out of tune but your fingers are not rusty

At the times when new improvements feel a lot like being beat
When you’re just as good as you used to be but you still feel obsolete
when you wish they'd would work on you before they go build some something new
Don’t you envy the wheels for charging through, just trust your own two feet
Don’t envy the wheels for charging through, just trust your own two feet
