S ometimes I feel so low-down and disg usted
Can't help but w onder what's happenin' to my comp anions
Are they l ost or are they found
have they counted the cost it'll take to bring down
A ll their earthly principles they're gonna have to ab andon?
There's a s low slow train c omin' up around the b end.
I had a woman down in Alabama
She was a bac kwoods girl but she sure was realist ic
She said "Boy without a doubt have to quit your mess and straighten out
You could di e down here be just another accident st atistic."
There's a s low slow train c omin' up around the b end.
A ll that foreign oil controlling American soil
Look around y ou it's just bound to make you embarrass ed.
Sheiks walkin' around like kings wearing fancy jewels and nose rings
Decidi ng America's future from Amsterdam and to Par is
There's a s low slow train c omin' up around the b end.
M an's ego is inflated his laws are outdated they don't app ly no more
You can't rely no more to be standin' around wai tin'
In the home of the brave Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
F ools glorifying themselves trying to manipulate Sa tan
There's a s low slow train c omin' up around the b end.
B ig-time negotiators false healers and woman haters
M asters of the bluff and masters of the propositi on
But the enemy I see wears a cloak of decency
All non- believers and men stealers talkin' in the name of rel igion
There's a s low slow train c omin' up around the b end.
P eople starving and thirsting grain elevators are bursting
Oh you know it c osts more to store the food than it do to giv e it.
They say lose your inhibitions follow your own ambitions
They talk about a life of br otherly love show me someone who knows how to
l ive it.
There's a s low slow train c omin' up around the b end.
W ell my baby went to Illinois with some bad-talkin' boy she could destroy
A real s uicide case but there was nothin' I could do to stop i t
I don't care about economy I don't care about astronomy
But it sure do bother me to see my loved ones turning into pu ppets
There's a s low slow train c omin' up around the b end.
