[00:00.000]	作词 : Chuck Berry
[00:00.562]	作曲 : Chuck Berry
[00:01.125][Verse 1]
[00:04.130]	A stranger lying on a bar room floor
[00:17.635]	Had drank so much he could drink no more
[00:20.629]	So he fell asleep with a troubled brain
[00:23.635]	To dream that he rode on that downbound train
[00:30.392][Verse 2]
[00:32.376]	The engine with blood was sweaty and damp
[00:34.638]	And brilliantly lit with a brimstone lamp
[00:38.378]	And imps for fuel was shoveling bones
[00:41.140]	While the furnace rang with a thousand groans
[00:48.144][Verse 3]
[00:49.639]	The boiler was filled with lots of beer
[00:52.381]	The devil himself was the engineer;
[00:55.646]	The passengers were most a motley crew
[00:58.646]	Some were foreigners and others he knew:
[01:02.391][Verse 4]
[01:02.884]	Rich men in broadcloth, beggars in rags
[01:05.141]	Handsome young ladies and wicked old hags
[01:11.080]	As the train rushed on at a terrible pace
[01:31.837]	Sulphuric fumes scorched their hands and face;
[01:34.833][Verse 5]
[01:35.092]	Wider and wider the country grew
[01:38.086]	Faster and faster the engine flew
[01:41.832]	Louder and louder the thunder crashed
[01:44.829]	Brighter and brighter the lightning flashed
[01:48.096][Verse 6]
[01:48.590]	Hotter and hotter the air became
[01:51.099]	Till their clothes were burned and they were screaming with pain;
[01:54.084]	Then out of the distance there came a yell
[01:57.349]	"Ha ha", said the devil, "We're nearing home"
[02:00.827][Verse 7]
[02:01.838]	Oh how the passengers shrieked with pain
[02:03.845]	And begged old Satan to stop that train
[02:12.590]	The stranger awoke with an anguished cry
[02:15.096]	His clothes wet with sweat and his hair standing high;
[02:18.581][Verse 8]
[02:19.088]	He fell on his knees on the bar room floor
[02:21.830]	And prayed a prayer like never before
[02:33.580]	And the prayers and vows were not in vain
[02:38.331]	For he never rode that downbound train
