Hey George

Hey George what’s the time?
I think it’s time to go
It’s dark and I can’t see
Can you tell me where the light will be?
Will I hear it coming when the train arrives?
Or will it be too noisy to find my way inside?
Let me know, I’m waiting
It’s been hard again today 
Hey George did you hear the warning?
There’s something coming down
I’ve heard the people mumble about a coming sound
Tell me what you know my friend
And help me walk again
Help me to be ready, I don’t want to hide
I want catch the last train out when the others ride
