| Lyrics：Bruce Springsteen Music：Bruce Springsteen | |
| I had a job, I had a girl | |
| I had something going mister in this world | |
| I got laid off down at the lumber yard | |
| Our love went bad, times got hard | |
| Now I work down at the carwash | |
| Where all it ever does is rain | |
| Don't you feel like you're a rider on a downbound train | |
| She just said 'Joe I gotta go | |
| We had it once we ain't got it any more' | |
| She packed her bags left me behind | |
| She bought a ticket on the Central Line | |
| Nights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whining | |
| I feel her kiss in the misty rain | |
| And I feel like I'm a rider on a downbound train | |
| Last night I heard your voice | |
| You were crying, crying, you were so alone | |
| You said your love had never died | |
| You were waiting for me at home | |
| Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods | |
| I ran till I thought my chest would explode | |
| There in the clearing, beyond the highway | |
| In the moonlight, our wedding house shone | |
| I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door | |
| My head pounding hard, up the stairs I climbed | |
| The room was dark, our bed was empty | |
| Then I heard that long whistle whine | |
| And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried | |
| Now I swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang | |
| Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain | |
| Now don't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train |
