Car 5032 of the union pacific 
Is passing by on the right to
Bring back all the hopelessness 
Of a trailer park in the old

Mining town 
Where the irony's laying thick on the ground
In the dirty streets of Goldfield 
If you're searching for silver

Or an easier fortune 
Finding nothing in the way of love or a
Life of living any better than before 
You'll know you've arrived

In Goldfield 
Car 5032 of the union pacific 
Is passing by on
The right and she's thinking of escaping out to Frisco 

From the
Trailer park in the old mining town 
Where the irony's laying
Thick on the ground 

In the dirty streets of Goldfield 
Laying roots
Down to soak up the poison for generations 
Finding nothing in

The way of love or a life of living any better than before 
You'll
Know you've arrived in Goldfield 
Gotta get the hell out of Goldfield

I'm gone this time 
I'm really leaving
