Blues Train

All aboard for the blues train If you're downbound people get on board All aboard now for the blues train If you're downbound people get on board There ain't no telling just where we're going Lord knows we're carrying a heavy load It started out so slow and easy Then this old route got kind of rough I guess I made a few bad choices But I prefer to blame my luck I guess gravity was stronger Than my poor will to pull me up When I tried to find religion There was no answer to my prayer Each dawning day the sky grew darker With pain and misery everywhere It's hard to take this life alone How much more we can go on heartless? Now the temperature is rising But brother it don't bother me 'Cause I've resigned myself to take Whatever tune that comes to me I'll fight the heat drowning in self-pity As deep as the deep blue sea I guess I'll ride this weary blues train Until my life is out of view See all the suffering of the world Out this dark window tinted blue 'Til my desires, dreams and wishes They turn to dust like me and you
