Lyric Train Running Low On Soul Coal
Me train running low on soul coal
They push+pull tactics are driving me loco
They shouldn t do that no no no
They shouldn t do that
Me train running low on dream steam
They pull me whistle too hard me bound to scream
And they shouldn t do that no no no
They shouldn t do that
Think I m going south for the winter
Think I m going mad in this hinterland
Between young and old
I m a thirty year old puppy doing what I m told
And I m told there s no more coal
For the older engines
Me train running low on soul coal
Think I m going south for the winter
Think I m going west and my sprinter s speed
Is reduced to a crawl
My rails went straight, but straight into the wall
It s the wall on which they dash the older engines
And all my servants are leaving
Imagination gone packing
Can t find the wound from where I m bleeding
He s just a nut and he s cracking
Hammer goes down
Brakes all scream
Me and a couple of empty carriages
Slide down hill still
Next stop bad dreamsville
Think I m going south for the winter
Me train running low on soul coal.
They push+pull tactics are driving me loco
