Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Smokin long black Cadillac, engine’s windin down

Parked it up on the sidewalk like he owned the whole damn town

 I'd hear him talkin to some chick through a thick ghost of smoke

 Through a thicker haze of southern comfort and coke

 He'd say girl you’re hotter than the hinges hangin off the gates of hell

Don’t be afraid to turn to me baby if a he don't treat you well

 And by he he meant me so I laughed and I shook his hand

He'd laugh a little bit louder as he would yell up at the band

Chorus

Play a train song, pour me one more round

Make’em leave my boots on on the day they lay me down

 I am a runaway locomotive out of my one track mind

And I’m lookin for any kind of trouble that I can find

I got this old black leather jacket, got this pack of Marlboro reds

 I got this stash here in my pocket, got these thoughts in my own head

 I got to run until I’ve got walk or until I got to crawl

 At this moment that I’m in right now and nothin else at all

Chorus

And the television blizzard lights we looked around his place

 We found him cold there on the sofa a little smile across his face

 And though I tried with all my sadness somehow I could never weep

 For a man who looked to me like he died laughin in his sleep

 Singin a train song, drinkin one last round

We made’em leave his boots on on the day they laid him down

 He was a runaway locomotive out of his one track mind

Play a train song

Play a train song

Play a train song
