๐ Lyrics
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Can't help but wonder what's happenin' to my companions
Are they lost or are they found
Have they counted the cost it'll take to bring down
All their earthly principles they're gonna have to abandon?
But there's a slow, slow train comin' up
I had a woman down in Alabama
She was a backwoods girl, but she sure was realistic
She said, Boy, without a doubt
Have to quit your mess and straighten out
You could die down here, be just another accident statistic
But there's a slow, slow train comin' up
Big-time negotiators, false healers and woman haters
Masters of the bluff and masters of the proposition
But the enemy I see wears a cloak of decency
All non-believers and men stealers talkin' in the name of religion
But there's a slow, said there's a slow train comin'
People starving and thirsting, grain elevators are bursting
You know it costs more to store the food than it do to give it
They say lose your inhibitions, follow your own ambitions
They talk about a life of brotherly love
Show me someone who knows how to live it
But there's a slow, slow train comin' up around the bend
Well, my baby went to Illinois
With some bad-talkin' boy she could destroy
A real suicide case, but there was nothin' I could do to stop it
I don't care about economy, I don't care about astronomy
But it sure do bother me to see my loved ones turning into puppets
But there's a slow, said a slow train, slow train comin'
(Woo-hoo, comin', slow train comin')
(Woo-hoo, comin', slow train comin')
(Woo-hoo, comin', slow train comin')
(Woo-hoo) But there's a slow
Slow train comin' up around the bend
(Comin', comin', comin')
Can't help but wonder what's happenin' to my companions
Are they lost or are they found
Have they counted the cost it'll take to bring down
All their earthly principles they're gonna have to abandon?
But there's a slow, slow train comin' up
I had a woman down in Alabama
She was a backwoods girl, but she sure was realistic
She said, Boy, without a doubt
Have to quit your mess and straighten out
You could die down here, be just another accident statistic
But there's a slow, slow train comin' up
Big-time negotiators, false healers and woman haters
Masters of the bluff and masters of the proposition
But the enemy I see wears a cloak of decency
All non-believers and men stealers talkin' in the name of religion
But there's a slow, said there's a slow train comin'
People starving and thirsting, grain elevators are bursting
You know it costs more to store the food than it do to give it
They say lose your inhibitions, follow your own ambitions
They talk about a life of brotherly love
Show me someone who knows how to live it
But there's a slow, slow train comin' up around the bend
Well, my baby went to Illinois
With some bad-talkin' boy she could destroy
A real suicide case, but there was nothin' I could do to stop it
I don't care about economy, I don't care about astronomy
But it sure do bother me to see my loved ones turning into puppets
But there's a slow, said a slow train, slow train comin'
(Woo-hoo, comin', slow train comin')
(Woo-hoo, comin', slow train comin')
(Woo-hoo, comin', slow train comin')
(Woo-hoo) But there's a slow
Slow train comin' up around the bend
(Comin', comin', comin')
