Song | Slow moving train |
Artist | Eric Burdon |
Album | Soul of a Man |
作词 : K, Keller | |
I was standing out back as the sun sank on down. | |
I was thinking to myself about a long distant sound, | |
How the fury and the flame burned so bright | |
Then blew out and left town on a slow moving train. | |
On a slow moving train, from the West to the East, | |
With the hopes of a nation of salvation and peace, | |
All the people came out and they stood by the tracks, | |
As the slow moving train took him back. | |
It was the end of the road of a time and a place, | |
The end of a dream and sweet youth'ssmiling face, | |
The beginning of a lesson we're still learning today, | |
Since he left on the slow moving train. | |
On that slow moving train, as he rested in peace, | |
'cross the mountains and plains from the sea to the sea, | |
All the peoplecame out, the men took off their hats, | |
As that slow moving train took him back. | |
I wonder where would we be, if the bullets had failed, | |
If the young men with dreams had somehow prevailed, | |
Just a shot from the darkness and the whole world was changed, | |
They sent him home on a slow moving train. | |
On a slow moving train, from the West to the East, | |
With the hopes of a nation of salvation and peace, | |
All the people came out and they stood by the tracks, | |
As the slow moving train took him back. | |
He went home on that slow moving train. |
