grey train going down
rolling over a covered bridge
I'm already gone
and I won't come back again
chorus:
dig a little deeper and lay your body in
someday down the line
you'll be wondering how you got
down the gravel walk
down to your knees
down falling through the tracks
slowly over the prairie
on a steel line streamline train
my mind full of razor wire
chain links and the ringing of your name
(chorus)
nighttime railroad tunnel
headlight in front of me
shine on Galesburg station
shine on rain brick streets
(chorus)
