Lyrics

[Intro]
Round and around and around the clock
Round and around and around the clock
[Verse 1]
Deleted, Ohio
Set sail through the fire
Everyone's suffocating
Waiting on the trial
Poison
For a hundred miles, miles, miles
[Chorus]
Here comes the Norfolk Southern
It's off the tracks and heading for you
Heading for you
[Verse 2]
Black veins
From black water
And the river snakes
Down through the holler
Now can you taste it?
Wasted, volatile
A hundred freights
Stacked in a pile, pile, pile
[Chorus]
Here comes the Norfolk Southern
It's off the tracks and heading for you
Here comes the Norfolk Southern
It's off the tracks and heading for you
Heading for you
[Bridge]
That's my town, East Palestine
That's my town, Springfield, Ohio
That's my town, Southwest Virginia
In the heart of Appalachia
And that's my town, Simple Shenandoah
Another train exploded
We're breathing fire now
That's my town, that's my town
[Chorus]
Here comes the Norfolk Southern
It's off the tracks and heading for you
Here comes the Norfolk Southern
It's off the tracks and heading for you
Yeah, it's heading for you
Yeah, it's heading for you
It's heading for you
