• Lyrics: By a western Pennsylvanian imaginary scene Leo talks of trains and steel. There’s a wedding in models Icicles rattle and a barnstormer’s flying for gold. This is the original Pullman Palace Car dream In which my life flashes before an imaginary scene And I’m harvesting zeppelins And banging on the rocks And I’m hoping for a better life Than the one I’ve got Now-a-days things move much faster And they’ve long put out the flame But if this were my world I would love you just the same. Now Leo’s getting tired of servicing the mill He wants to take a ride on that little Ferris Wheel But the ferry is empty and the last train has gone home The hedges need clipping and the dog’s without a bone This is the original Pullman Palace Car dream In which my life flashes before an imaginary scene And I’m pissing off the preacher And stealing all his wine I’m drinking in the alley But, everything is fine Now-a-days things move much faster And they’ve long put out the flame But if this were my world I would love you just the same. Could you save me From the little things that terrify me? Could you save me? This is the original Pullman Palace Car dream In which my life flashes before an imaginary scene And, I’m choking on the maples I miss my wife And it’s all because of you that I can’t be with her tonight. Now-a-days things move much faster And they’ve long put out the flame But if this were my world I would love you just the same. Just the same. I would love you just the same.
