Lyrics
Down in Key West they got a ride for the tourist
They sell a lotta tickets for their specialized service
Kinda looks like a train but the colors are insane
It's a conch train
It's an open air delight you can see the local sights
Got tires front and back so it does't need a track
It even has a bell and whistle
To let you know that it's commin
Well we pulled into town and we found a parkin spot
Grabbed a big old bag that was loaded full of pot
We didn't know that we were gonna be a local atraction
I looked to my left and I looked to my right
I swear I didn't see a dog gone thing in sight
So I sparked a big ol number and I heard my buddy say
"It's a conch train, a big conch train, a long conch train
Commin 'round the bend"
It's got little rubber tires you wheel away the hours
In a conch train
I stood real still as the train rolled by
I saw some people smilin others just rolled their eyes
I couldn't move a muscle I was frozen like a deer in headlights
As the train rolled away I could hear the driver say
"If you look to you left on this bright and sunny day
You can see the local color as they stumble on down the sidewalk
Well we pulled into town and we found a parkin spot
Grabbed a big ol bag that was loaded full of pot
We didn't know that we were gonna be a local atraction
I looked to my left I looked to my right
I swear I didn't see a dog gone thing in sight
So I sparked a big ol number and I heard my buddy say
"It's a conch train, a big conch train, a long conch train
Commin 'round the bend"
It's got thirteen cars holds twenty seven people
It's a conch train
It's got little rubber tires you can wheel away the hours
In a conch train.
