Ghost Train
I had a vision plain and true
Saw something that few people do
And Lord God I've seen enough.
I had a vision true and plain
That cracked broken rusty ghost train
That once you're on you can't get off.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
This train, this train, this train, this train.
Old iron bearing down like wind
It's built by ruin and run on sin
It had no start it has no end.
Every face it looks the same
No one can tell from where they came
Nobody knows what's round the bend.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
Looking down from the train through those busted window panes
They were calling out my name, "Boy, you're next."
This train, this train, this train, this train
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
Lord have mercy let that ghost train pass me,
Curse its rails to the weeds and the rust.
Tell me once again that old story
Cure the pride and cure the flesh and cure the lust.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
Captured souls that test the ground, across the line, were never found
They were reaching out their hands from the wrecks.
This train, this train, this train, this train.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
Come aboard the train, it'll be okay.
Come aboard the train, it'll be okay.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
Saw something that few people do
And Lord God I've seen enough.
I had a vision true and plain
That cracked broken rusty ghost train
That once you're on you can't get off.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
This train, this train, this train, this train.
Old iron bearing down like wind
It's built by ruin and run on sin
It had no start it has no end.
Every face it looks the same
No one can tell from where they came
Nobody knows what's round the bend.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
Looking down from the train through those busted window panes
They were calling out my name, "Boy, you're next."
This train, this train, this train, this train
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
Lord have mercy let that ghost train pass me,
Curse its rails to the weeds and the rust.
Tell me once again that old story
Cure the pride and cure the flesh and cure the lust.
I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes, I saw their eyes.
Captured souls that test the ground, across the line, were never found
They were reaching out their hands from the wrecks.
This train, this train, this train, this train.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
Come aboard the train, it'll be okay.
Come aboard the train, it'll be okay.
This train ain't bound for glory, and I don't want to go no no no.
