lyrics

Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if he's coming back again.
Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if he's ever coming back again.

Choose your partners for the dance,
Mark your cards and take your chances.
Mister Ryan took a chance on me.
In the french room after school,
Il m'a enseigné très bien toujours
We conjugated more than verbs.

Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if he's ever coming back again.
Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if that man is ever coming back again.

Each child holds the world's sure future
Promise of what is to come
Mr Ryan promised me the world.
Tomorrow becomes yesterday,
Promises may fade away, but
Now this child has a future of her own.

Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if that man is ever coming back again.
Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if that man will bring his lies back here again.

On the platform the future sounds
A distant diesel and I'm going down

Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if he's ever coming back again.
Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if that man is ever coming back again.
Mister Ryan is on that train
And I don't know if that man will bring his lies back here again.
