Snaketrain Lyrics

Comin' into Southbend headin' towards the graveyard shift

Blockin' off the fallen fences with my hardware grip

Watchin' out and waitin' for a signal seen

That could level out the quiet side

And if you say you're lonely

I'm the one you'll find there on the side

Your one and only

And you will know when this deed has died

I was chasin' a ghost, pale and white

And hard to see

The boys in blue from peculiar school

Are hangin' out in the dark and they're lookin' for me

If you say you're lonely

I'm the one you'll find there on the run

Your one and only

And you will know when this deed is done

CHORUS

Somebody's walkin' away

While everybody's ridin' on the snaketrain

Somebody's walkin' away,

While everybody's ridin' on the snaketrain

Remember when the wind would blow

and how warm the sun would feel?

If you say you're lonely

And you can't decide what's fair is fair

You're dreaming only

And I will try and catch you there

CHORUS
