Cold Steel Rail
Old train rolling down the track
Slipping into darkness don't come back
Tommy's in the morgue Billy's in jail
Tommy's laid out like a cold steel rail
Full moon shining through the dark of night
Train wheels holding the track so tight
Carrying the news carrying the mail
Carrying it all on a cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Billie had a plan Tommy had a gun
The sheriff had the edge when the deed was done
Bullets flying everywhere raining down like hail
Bouncing off the walls and the cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Billie ducked for cover Tommy stood his ground
The sheriff and his deputies mowed Tommy down
Then they beat Billie like a hammer on a nail
While the moonlight gleamed on the cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Old train rolling down the track slipping into darkness don't come back
Tommy's in the morgue Billy's in jail
Tommy's laid out like a cold steel rail
Full moon shining through the dark of night
Train wheels holding the track so tight
Carrying the news carrying the mail
Carrying it all on a cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Like a cold steel rail
Slipping into darkness don't come back
Tommy's in the morgue Billy's in jail
Tommy's laid out like a cold steel rail
Full moon shining through the dark of night
Train wheels holding the track so tight
Carrying the news carrying the mail
Carrying it all on a cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Billie had a plan Tommy had a gun
The sheriff had the edge when the deed was done
Bullets flying everywhere raining down like hail
Bouncing off the walls and the cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Billie ducked for cover Tommy stood his ground
The sheriff and his deputies mowed Tommy down
Then they beat Billie like a hammer on a nail
While the moonlight gleamed on the cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Old train rolling down the track slipping into darkness don't come back
Tommy's in the morgue Billy's in jail
Tommy's laid out like a cold steel rail
Full moon shining through the dark of night
Train wheels holding the track so tight
Carrying the news carrying the mail
Carrying it all on a cold steel rail
Like a cold steel rail keeps coming round the bend
That cold steel rail never reaches the end
Like a cold steel rail
