Lyrics

[00:01.00]
[00:11.07] In the shuffling madness
[00:13.74] Of the locomotive breath
[00:17.85] Runs the all time loser
[00:21.58] Headlong to his death
[00:24.43] And he feels the piston scraping
[00:28.38] Steam breaking on his brow
[00:32.01] Old Charlie stole the handle
[00:35.61] And the train, it won't stop going no way to slow down, oh
[00:48.05] He sees his children jumping off
[00:50.97] At stations one by one
[00:55.21] His woman and his best friend
[00:58.63] In bed and having fun
[01:01.92] And oh, he's crawling down the corridor
[01:06.19] On his hands and knees
[01:09.34] Old Charlie stole the handle
[01:12.57] And the train, it won't stop going no way to slow down, oh
[01:23.22] No way to slow down
[02:02.59] He hears the silence howling
[02:05.58] When he catches angels as they fall
[02:10.03] And the all time winner
[02:12.98] Has got him by the balls
[02:16.14] Oh, and he picks up Gideon's Bible
[02:19.56] And it's open at page one
[02:23.23] I think God, he stole the handle
[02:26.82] And the train, it won't stop going
[02:31.17] No way to slow down
[02:37.72] No way to slow down
[02:45.09] No way to slow down
[02:52.30] No way to slow down
[02:56.88] No way to slow down
[02:59.61] No way to slow down
[03:03.47] No way to slow down
[03:07.22] No way to slow down
[03:11.12] No way to slow down
[03:14.91] No way to slow down
[03:18.87] No way to slow down
