The Lyrics
I saw a sign for this guy, oh-oh
For a long time a long shot he was
Several months in the past
He was unheard of, oh-oh
Then he sprang to the top
Folks got back on the train, oh
Back on the Cain train
A circumstance beyond Mitt's control, oh-oh
The phones call you trying to take a poll
Herm took the lead like a pizza from hell, oh-oh
But people just laughed when they heard all his gaffes
Put 'em back on the train, oh
Back on the Cain train
The powers that be
The Koch brothers fund him, it's true
Grassroots, not he
But POLITICO he wants to sue
'Cause he's standing embarrased today
We know that he broke women's hearts
When you do harassment, you pay
Your bid falls apart
He blamed Rick Perry today, oh-oh
Without any evidence to back it up
Meanwhile Romney smiles at the scene, oh-oh
A spike in his chances is what this all means
No more tracks for the train, oh
No tracks for the Cain train
For a long time a long shot he was
Several months in the past
He was unheard of, oh-oh
Then he sprang to the top
Folks got back on the train, oh
Back on the Cain train
A circumstance beyond Mitt's control, oh-oh
The phones call you trying to take a poll
Herm took the lead like a pizza from hell, oh-oh
But people just laughed when they heard all his gaffes
Put 'em back on the train, oh
Back on the Cain train
The powers that be
The Koch brothers fund him, it's true
Grassroots, not he
But POLITICO he wants to sue
'Cause he's standing embarrased today
We know that he broke women's hearts
When you do harassment, you pay
Your bid falls apart
He blamed Rick Perry today, oh-oh
Without any evidence to back it up
Meanwhile Romney smiles at the scene, oh-oh
A spike in his chances is what this all means
No more tracks for the train, oh
No tracks for the Cain train
