We got the tickets and we missed the bus
Baby - the joke's on us
He's burning diesel while we fret and fuss
Baby - the joke's on us

Stranded at the station
Fruits of hesitation
Forget your destination
Stranded at the station

I made the terminal but I missed my flight
Baby I'm not so bright
They wouldn't check my baggage
So I had a big fight
Baby I'm not so bright

Stranded at the station
Fruits of hesitation
Forget your destination
Stranded at the station

Sitting by the tracks once more
Same way I done did before
Watching my train of thought just roar away

We missed the boat like doggone fools
Baby we're not so cool
He left us sitting and his sails are full
Baby we're not so cool

Stranded at the station
Fruits of hesitation
Forget your destination
Stranded at the station
