|
My engine was pumpin' the steam |
|
And I was grindin' out you hard and fast |
|
I was burnin' down the rails |
|
To heat the way |
|
Haulin' ass a-ridin' up the tracks |
|
And I laughed at the conductor |
|
Who was tellin' me my coal would never last |
|
When the fire in my boiler |
|
Up and quit before |
|
I came There ain't no empty cellar |
|
Need a gone dead train |
|
Once there was a time |
|
When I could mama shave'em dry |
|
And raise the fever ice-down chill |
|
Waitin' at the station with a heavy-loaded sack |
|
Savin' up and holdin' just to spill |
|
Shootin' my supply in my demon's eye |
|
Instead of waitin' for the time to go by, well |
|
When the fire in the boiler |
|
Up and quit before |
|
I came There ain't no empty cellar |
|
Need a gone dead train |
|
It's a gone dead train |
|
You gotta teach it to burn |
|
Yes, it's a gone dead train |
|
You gotta teach it to learn |
|
There ain't no easy way |
|
To run a down-hill pull |
|
And there ain't no easy way |
|
Just wishin' for some jelly roll |
|
Ain't no switch been made |
|
To make your juicy lemon find |
|
A spring to run a dry well full ' |
|
Cause the fire in my boiler |
|
Up and quit before |
|
I came There ain't no empty cellar |
|
Need a gone dead train |
|
Yes, gone dead train |
|
You gotta teach it to burn |
|
Well, it's gone dead train |
|
You gotta teach it to learn |
|
My engine was pumpin' steam |
|
And I was grindin' at you hard and fast |
|
I was burnin' down the rails |
|
To heat the way |
|
Haulin' ass a-ridin' up the tracks |
|
And I laughed at the conductor |
|
Who was tellin' me my coal would never last |
|
When the fire in my boiler |
|
Up and quit before |
|
I came There ain't no empty cellar |
|
Need a gone dead train |
|
Yeah, gone dead train |
|
You gotta teach it to burn |
|
It's gone dead train |
|
You gotta teach to learn |
|
Baby it's a gone dead train |
