Black Train

Ridin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black train
Ridin' on the black train
Ridin' on the black train
Torn from my southern home

Ridin' on the black train
And I can't get better, I can't get better
Ridin' on the black train
I still can't be satisfied
And I'm lightin' up the night
Although I know I've been there before
Torn up on the black train
Every blood in my body goes with the train
I'm movin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black train
I'm heat on the black train
I'm ridin' on the black train

I left the Will-O-the-Wisp to roam

With everything I've had and everything I've done

And some of it's on the floor

Ridin' on the black train
I left a nigger lying dead by the river
I'm slippin' out to any place

And I breathe a soundless sound
