Stan Ridgway Snaketrain
Comin' into Southbend headin' towards the graveyard shift Blockin' off the fallen fences with my hardware grip Watchin' out and waitin' for a signal seen That could level out the quiet side And if you say you're lonely I'm the one you'll find there on the side Your one and only And you will know when this deed has died I was chasin' a ghost, pale and white And hard to see The boys in blue from peculiar school Are hangin' out in the dark and they're lookin' for me If you say you're lonely I'm the one you'll find there on the run Your one and only And you will know when this deed is done CHORUS Somebody's walkin' away While everybody's ridin' on the snaketrain Somebody's walkin' away, While everybody's ridin' on the snaketrain Remember when the wind would blow and how warm the sun would feel? If you say you're lonely And you can't decide what's fair is fair You're dreaming only And I will try and catch you there CHORUS --------------------------------------------------
