This Train Won't Stop
In the city streets where I was born
People bowed their heads from dusk till dawn
Never realized the potential of their lives
Till the reaper came to cut the corn
Some were born to live a life of ease
Never knowing suffering or disease
Till that final day when judgment comes their way
When they fall down on their knees and pray
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
In the golden fields of yesterday
Where the children used to laugh and play
You can hear the sound of a hammer breaking steel
When you take more than you give, it never heals
I can see it rolling 'cross the sky
On the holy mountain side where eagles cry
Far from Earth below where poisoned rivers flow
Where I'm free to let my soul and spirit fly
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
Will the road find it?
Will the soul guide you down?
When will we really see that higher love?
When we reach the end of our lives?
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
This train won't stop, train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, train won't stop, train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
Till we reach the end of the line
This train just won't stop
This train just won't stop
See the reaper in the field
This train just won't stop
Time to get your spirit healed
This train just won't stop
Now the doors are open wide
This train just won't stop
There's no place that you can hide
This train just won't stop
Tell your children
This train just won't stop
[Incomprehensible]
This train just won't stop, this train just won't stop
This train just won't stop, this train just won't stop
This train just won't stop, this train just won't stop
This train won't stop
People bowed their heads from dusk till dawn
Never realized the potential of their lives
Till the reaper came to cut the corn
Some were born to live a life of ease
Never knowing suffering or disease
Till that final day when judgment comes their way
When they fall down on their knees and pray
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
In the golden fields of yesterday
Where the children used to laugh and play
You can hear the sound of a hammer breaking steel
When you take more than you give, it never heals
I can see it rolling 'cross the sky
On the holy mountain side where eagles cry
Far from Earth below where poisoned rivers flow
Where I'm free to let my soul and spirit fly
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
Will the road find it?
Will the soul guide you down?
When will we really see that higher love?
When we reach the end of our lives?
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
This train won't stop, train won't stop
This train won't stop, this train won't stop
This train won't stop, train won't stop, train won't stop
Till we reach the end of the line
Till we reach the end of the line
This train just won't stop
This train just won't stop
See the reaper in the field
This train just won't stop
Time to get your spirit healed
This train just won't stop
Now the doors are open wide
This train just won't stop
There's no place that you can hide
This train just won't stop
Tell your children
This train just won't stop
[Incomprehensible]
This train just won't stop, this train just won't stop
This train just won't stop, this train just won't stop
This train just won't stop, this train just won't stop
This train won't stop
