Long Black Train Lyrics
(Allison Moorer/Doyle Primm)I've been walking these mean streetsHard concrete beneath my feetAin't found a friendly face among the crowdThe city's like a Christmas treeA light for every dreamer's dreamBut it seems mine has finally burned outLong black train, take me homeI've worn out my welcome here, it's time to goI have to face the music, this just ain't where I belongLong black train, take me homeI should've known I was mistaken When I thought that I'd be makingA name for myself in BabylonThough I've tried to do my bestThe suit and ties are not impressedSo with what's left of my pride, I'll carry onLong black train, take me homeI've worn out my welcome here, it's time to goI have to face the music, this just ain't where I belongLong black train, take me homeI'm gonna trade my guitar for a ticketThen climb aboard and ride you down the trackI know I'm licked, but it's hard to admit itMaybe someday you can bring me backLong black train, take me homeI've worn out my welcome here, it's time to goI have to face the music, this just ain't where I belongLong black train, take me homeLong black train, take me home
