I found a picture of you, ohh ohh
You'd hijacked my world at night
To a place in the past we've been passed out of, ohh ohh
Now we're back in the fight

(Ooh, ah)
We're back on the train, yeah
(Ooh, ah)
(Ooh, ah)
Oh, back on the chain gang

Circumstance beyond our control, ohh ohh
The phone, TV and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from Hell, ohh ohh
Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies

(Ooh, ah)
We're just back on the train, yeah
(Ooh, ah)
(Ooh, ah)
Ah, back on the chain gang

The powers that be that force us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees when I see what they've done to you
Well, I'll die as I stand here today knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day for makin' us part

I found a picture of you, ohh ohh
Those were the happiest days of my life
Like a break in the battle was your part, ohh ohh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart

(Ooh, ah)
Now we're back on the train, yeah
(Ooh, ah)
(Ooh, ah)
Ah, back on the chain gang
