As we’ve detailed on these cyber-pages, Metro-North has been the inspiration for at least one popular troubadour–Larchmont songster Michael Nappi even put the ol’ railroad on the cover of his album, and named a song after the 7:26 morning train to the city.
Well, surfer lame-o Jack Johnson has tapped the train as a muse as well, with a ditty called “Breakdown” that perhaps was inspired by the beleaguered New Haven Line.
A little lyric, please:
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down
But I cant stop now
Let me break on down
