The early start
the silent hour
the wind outside a-moan
The ticking clock
the coffee hot
the time to leave from home
The coat so warm
the wind so cold
the sleep still in my eyes
The red eye train
the comfy seat
the long trip, no surprise
The journey north
the many miles
the place far up the track
The working and
the waiting for
the train to take me back

The daily grind
The long unwind
The drudge that leaves you tired
I’ll bet my life
You and your wife
Can’t wait till you’re retired!

You’d be right there
so here I’ll share
it not that far away
about a year
until with cheer
I’ll see retirement day
