Long Train Runnin'

"Long Train Runnin'" by the Doobie Brothers, from their album The Captain and Me, ranked 41st on the Year-end Billboard Hot 100 of my birth year. Quoted on Songfacts, lead singer and guitarist Tom Johnston said "We played 'Long Train Runnin'' for three years before it got recorded, and it got called several different names, and most of the time I would make up the words as we were playing the song."

Well the pistons keep on turning
And the wheels go round and round
The steel rails are cold and hard
For the miles that they go down
Without love, where would you be right now
