Lyrics:
Well you've been on a fast train and it's going off the rails
And you can't come back can't come back together again
And you start breaking down
A long steel rail a short cross-tie I'm on my way back home
I'm on the train the king of them all the Streamlined Cannonball
Oh she climbs along
when your ship comes in
The first man takes the sails
The second takes the after deck
The third the planks and rails
What's the point of callin' shots
Twisted, jump the rail
Shout at the crowd below
Breaker, chase the ghost
From latest high to all time low
Hooked into this deceiver
Need more and more
Roads and rails under their feet
Yeah that sounds like a first class seat
On the plains of Oklahoma
Where they windshield sunset in your eyes
Like
a hater go to Hell
I'ma send a ting through the mail and drive the money in myself
Early ting, East Atlanta, we was broke, we jumped the rail
On my dick,
only you could do
Somehow you put this runaway train back on the rails
Yeah, these boots, never walkin' out on you
They ain't got no more running
And a train rolls out of the station
That was really somethin' in its day
Picking up speed on the straight prairie rails
As it carries the passengers away
that Wraith
I'm feelin' like Meechie or three ATL
Purp got leanin' like I on a rail
Mixing that Birk with that new YSL
Sellin' that dope gave me
known to fail
And never travel by car or bus, boat or by rail
And don't travel by plane, and don't travel at all
Build a bomb shelter basement with
But you gotta understand
When the lord made me
He made a ramblin' man
I love to see the towns
A-passin' by
And to ride these rails
'Neath god's blue
Hey there
Trainwreck
Look in the mirror
Could it be clearer
End of the line
Way off the rails
Next door to nowhere
Lamp burnin' low where
Smoking down the track
I'm a fireball mill
Lord, coal's so black
Can't even see the rail
Followin' tongues of steel
Behind, I drive the wheel
Pulls
I'm closing in
My heart is beating
Like a whip on a hide
It's raining outside
[Chorus]
Every time I rant and rail
Every time I try and fail
If you're lucky you can take her cross the rail road tracks
Where the man in the moon works his magic
On the second runner up of the 4H pageant
skipped the rails, and we started to fail
And we folded up, and it’s not enough
Think about how close we came
I wanna walk like a giant on the land
I
grab the rail
Are you sure you wanna ride with me?
If you scared don't lie to me
I'm a crazy mother fucka from the mid west
With a Mississippi flow
Hurry, get on, now it`s coming
Listen to those rails a-thrumming
All aboard, get on the "A" train
Soon you will be on Sugar Hill in Harlem
And a train rolls out of the station
That was really somethin' in its day
Picking up speed on the straight prairie rails
As it carries the passengers away
of the rails
Seems like a sad song
Last call farewell
A hundred tons of cold steel
Rustin' in the rain
The singin' of the rollin' wheels
Are callin' out
And the party rolls on.
Used to be a rumour goin' round,
The people tried to run my man outta town.
We thought we'd see him ride the rails.
No one's ever gonna
I need you like freedom, I feel you like rain
I see you like silver rails across an endless plain
And I know there are moments
You feel as I do,
the rail band
Picking up the beat
We lit that great reunion
With the headlights on the jeep
And there's history on the jukebox
Where the spies
Then he left me freezing on a steel rail track
They got 'em all in the jailhouse, ain't they baby
I ain't living long like this
Grew up in Houston
