(originally performed by Jethro Tull)
|
|
In the shuffling madness
|
Of the locomotive breath
|
Runs the all time loser
|
Headlong to his death
|
And he feels the piston scraping
|
Steam breaking on his brow
|
Old Charlie stole the handle
|
And the train, it won't stop going
|
No way to slow it down, oh
|
|
He sees his children jumping off
|
At stations one by one
|
His woman and his best friend
|
In bed and having fun
|
And oh, he's crawling down the corridor
|
On his hands and knees
|
Old Charlie stole the handle
|
And the train, it won't stop going
|
No way to slow down, oh
|
No way to slow down
|
|
He hears the silence howling
|
When he catches angels as they fall
|
And the all time winner
|
Has got him by the balls
|
Oh, and he picks up Gideon's Bible
|
And it's open at page one
|
I think God, he stole the handle
|
And the train, it won't stop going
|
|
No way to slow down
|
No way to slow down
|
No way to slow down
|
No way to slow down
|
