Train to St. Louis

There's a woman on this train, she's looking at me

With eyes dark as lead, I couldn't really see

That her life's been over for more than three years now

Well mine must be too, but I don't know

I thought this train would take me to St. Louis

When I found the brakeman but he could not steer

All I saw was his body, thought he might be dead

When I realized that this man lost his head

He pointed down to the end of the train

And I thought I was going insane

The aisle led me and I could hear the refrain

Either I jump off or join them and sing

And they were singing la da di da, la da di da da da

La da di da, la da di da da da

This train took my soul, keeps it for eternity

So have a drink with us then you'll see, then you'll see

I jumped off that rail, never to look back

As I wandered the streets, there was something I lacked

I lost my soul, no one can see me

Now I curse that train for what it did to me

And now I'm singing la da di da, la da di da da da

La da di da, la da di da da da

That train took my soul, kept it for eternity

Now I'm on my own and only I can see

At least I'm not on that haunted train

But now I don't have a fucking thing, a fucking thing

And they were singing la da di da, la da di da da da

La da di da, la da di da da da

La da di da, la da di da da da

La da di da, la da di da da da, oh oh oh oh
