Gone Dead Train by Izzy Stradlin
Gone Dead Train lyrics
And laughing at the conductor
Who was tellin' me my coal
It would never last
But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
Ain't no empty cellar
Like a gone dead train
Once was at a time when I could
Mama shave 'em dry
And raise a fever ice-down chill
Waitin' at the station
With a heavy loaded sack
Savin' up and holdin' just to spill
Shootin' my supply through my demon's eye
Instead of holdin' my time, I hope I will
But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
Ain't no empty cellar
Like a gone dead train
Yes it's a dead gone train
I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
It's a dead gone train
Yes it's a dead gone train
I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
It's a dean gone train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to learn
There ain't no easy day
When your daily run's a downhill pull
And there ain't no easy way
Wishin' for some jelly roll
There ain't no switch been made
To make your juicy lemon find
A spring to run a dry well full
But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
Ain't no empty cellar
Like a gone dead train
Yes it's a dead gone train
I'm gonna teach it to learn
You know it's a dead gone train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn
It's a dean gone train
It's a dean gone train, you gotta learn
It's a dean gone train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn
