Southbound Train

Liberty laughin' and shakin' your head

Can you carry the torch

That'll bring home the dead?

To the land of their fathers whose lives you have led

To the station at the edge of the town

On the southbound train goin' down

Equality quietly facing the fist

Are you angry and tired

That your point has been missed?

Will you go in the back room and study the list

Of the gamblers usin' the phone?

On the southbound train goin' down

Fraternity failin' to fight back the tears

Will it take an eternity

Breaking all the fears?

And what will the passenger do when he hears

That he's already paid for the crown?

On the southbound train goin' down
