otis gibbs - it was a train lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i climbed aboard the ugliest of beasts
i felt the earth give way beneath my feet
a steel beast crawled across the ground
belching fire and ash and sound
with a roar so loud it made my ears bleed

[chorus]
it was a train that led me from all i knew
taught me the ways of the wind
from the windows of a train, i saw my youth pass by
now this train’s gonna take me home again

[verse 2]
i saw the dust clouds swirling in the streets
heard steel clacking, clanging in the heat
then a filthy churning cloud
blacked out the sun for twenty miles
as we rode off to the sound of boxcar creaks

[chorus]
it was a train that led me from all i knew
taught me the ways of the wind
from the windows of a train, i saw my youth pass by
now this train’s gonna take me home again
[verse 3]
i tasted filthy lies upon my lips
i felt the hateful scorn of hypocrites
i choked and gasped for air
with black soot matted in my hair
and clutched the door with tar+stained fingertips

[chorus]
it was a train that led me from all i knew
taught me the ways of the wind
from the windows of a train, i saw my youth pass by
now this train’s gonna take me home again
now this train’s gonna take me home again
