lyrics

VERSE 1:
My baby left this mornin' on that double decker train
If that girl does not come back things will not be the same
She's done it all before and it give me so much pain
But that girl cannot resist that paralegal game!

CHORUS:
She's a DAY-ly train rider
But I cain't give her the boot
When she hears that whistle blowin' . . .
That GIRL's bound to commute

VERSE 2:
I used to work long hours, until that bubble burst
Now the only money I can get comes out of that girl's purse
But when my day comes and that market turns around
I'll be the one that she'll be watching riding off downtown.

CHORUS 2:
She's a DAY-ly train rider
But I cain't give her the boot
When she hears that whistle blowin' . . .
That GIRL's bound to commute

Guitar SOLO OVER VERSE PROGRESSION.
INTRO RIFF 1x, then walk up from F to G.
6-string C6-tuned LAP STEEL solo.
INTRO RIFF 1x, then one more lap steel bit.

BAND DROPS OUT EXCEPT FOR KICK DRUM for...

VERSE 3:
I wake UP alone each morning, a-BOUT ten forty-five
I MISS that woman so darn much the TEARS fall from my eyes
I'll go DOWN and pick her up some day, stop BEIN' a useless louse
As SOON as I can GET myself DRESSed and leave the house

CHORUS 3:
She's a DAY-ly train rider
But I cain't give her the boot
When she hears that whistle blowin' . . .
That GIRL's bound to commute
