Union Pacific Getaway Car

Let’s pull the pin and roll
Highball it out of here
We’ve been running this way for years

Don’t let the skipper catch you
Or brains will dump the air
They will never know we were there

‘Cause I’ll run and board on the getaway car
And we’ll run and run and get real far
Let’s go and hide in the getaway car
I’ll ride and ride with you by my side 

‘Cause I’ll run and board on the getaway car
And we’ll run and run and get real far
Let’s go and hide in the getaway car
I’ll ride and ride with you by my side 

And I still see her there when I close my eyes
In Pocatello in a switching yard
The sun coming up right by her side
I could squint and see our future from so far
I went to grab us lunch in Laramie, at Sweet Melissa’s
But you got popped hopping off the train now forever I’ll miss ya

Tight, low height freight car
The light, shining down from the Dog Star
My soul fell apart in the rail yard
Searching around for you, the queen I’d crowned

Now my vengeance it burns out at night
Trying to get you back in sight 
Looking up and down for my lost love
Then we both could go and

Run and board on the getaway car
And we’ll run and run and get real far
Let’s go and hide in the getaway car
I’ll ride and ride with you by my side 

‘Cause I’ll run and board on the getaway car
And we’ll run and run and get real far
Let’s go and hide in the getaway car
I’ll ride and ride with you by my side 

Ride, ride, ride
