Song of the Suburban Traveller. Dozens of special trains a day, Hold up my usual right of way. On every line, on many loops Are government trains filled with troops. Government trains are on the line normally kept for me and mine. But wouldn't I rather have to wait, Lose the connection, and miss a date. Than be on time, and have the war Settle itself at my front door? Merely because my train each day held up some special's right of way.
