Black Train

I'm movin' on the black train

The night it beats me down

I'm movin' on the black train

And I breathe a soundless soundRidin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black trainEvery blood in my body goes with the train

And some of it's on the floor

I'm slippin' out to any place

Although I know I've been there beforeRidin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black trainTorn up on the black train

Torn from my southern home

I left a nigger lying dead by the river

I left the Will-O-the-Wisp to roamRidin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black trainAnd I can't get better, I can't get betterRidin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black trainI'm heat on the black train

And I'm lightin' up the night

With everything I've had and everything I've done

I still can't be satisfiedI'm ridin' on the black train

I'm ridin' on the black train
