Ray Manzarek - Downbound Train lyrics
but now we must descend... for there is another side to this vision. I found myself on a bar room floor I had drunk so much I could drink no more, So I fell asleep with a frozen brain and I dreamed that I rode on a downbound train. The boiler was filled with blood and beer The Devil himself was the engineer. The passengers were mostly a decadent crew, Some were foreigners and others I knew. Rock stars in velvet, gay boys in drag Beautiful groupies and wicked old hags. They fed the fire with human bones While the furnace rang with a thousand groans. As the train rushed on at a terrible pace Sulphuric fumes scorched my hands and face, Wider and wider the country grew Faster and faster the engine flew, Louder and louder the thunder crashed Brighter and brighter the lighting flashed, Hotter and hotter the air became Till my clothes were burned to a brilliant flame. Then out of the distance there came a yell "Look here," said the devil, "we're nearing home!" Oh, how the passengers shrieked with pain And they begged old Satan ah, they begged old Satan well, to stop oh, to stop that stop that downbound train............. |
