Dear Sylvia, I can’t make it tomorrow
I woke up in the Valley of the Dogs again
But Sylvia, if I can get past Ruby Hollow
I might be there when that train comes in
But it’s a long way back to New Orleans
And in between you’re gonna disappear
Yeah, it’s a long way home - where I’m coming from
But darling, I have dreamed the friend is near
His name is Wilbur Corduroy
He’s a broken toy, but aren’t we all?
You can tell by the way I walk I’m missing pieces
My brains don’t work, my eyes are 45’s
I’m more dead than alive, but you know the feeling
This train is breathing, this train is leaving
Hey Sylvia, I heard a good joke today
I heard the preacher say at death
We’ll be born again
If he only knew about me and you
He’d see we’re afterliving proof
That what he said was true, just a little bent
I saw the light, I saw the light
I spilled my guts on Alvarado tonight
They used to call us shaman, but now we’re just sick
Well, I’m sick of it, I’m sick of it, I’m sick of it
I wrote our names upon the wall
The cemetery and the bathroom stalls
Now they know who to call if they’re missing pieces
Our brains don’t work, our eyes are 45’s
We’re more dead than alive, but you know the reason
This train is stealing all we have left
This train is breathing
This train is leaving
This train is bound for Glory, this train
This train is bound for Glory, this train
This train is bound for Glory
Hell on heels, that’s another story
This train is bound for Glory, this train
Fish don’t fry in the kitchen
Beans don’t burn on the grill
Threw my worries in an open grave
Now I’ve only got time to kill
Because I’m going nowhere
But nowhere’s where I wanna be
So if you get to heaven
Give ol’ St. Peter hell for me
He’ll see - nobody rides for free
This train is bound for Glory, this train
This train is bound for Glory, this train
This train may be full of holes
Forgotten haunts, abandoned souls
But this train is bound for Glory, this train
But it’s a long way back to where you’re from
You’ll be far from done when those curtains close
Because there’s no way home
When you’re dead and gone
So I’ll be on my way when that whistle blows
This train is
All we have left
This train is breathing
