Lyrics:



She didn't want to get pinned down by her prior town

Get me to the train on time, here take this nickel make a dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave

What is at the other end, I don't know another friend

Another wife, another morning spent

Listen, listen to the auctioneer

Another engine, another engine



We never wrote the reasons that I need explained

Some things are givens, and others get away

This time its for myself you call it what you may

Okay, we won't say goodbye so long, so much more

Listen to the auctioneer

Another engine, another engine



Listen to the bargain holler

Listen to the barter holler

Listen to the auctioneer



Get me to the train on time here take this nickel make a dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave

What is at the other end, an I don't know another friend

Another wife, another morning spent

Listen to the auctioneer

Another engine, another engine



Do I stand the bargain holler?

Listen to the barter holler

Listen to the auctioneer

(During the intro and breakdown, Peter sticks to this. During the verse,

however,

he adlibs a bit and instead of hitting the second "7" of the riff, he will

substitute

by hitting the high E string or some other random note.)
