Black Train

I'm movin' on the black train

The night it beats me down

I'm movin' on the black train

And I breathe a soundless sound

Ridin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black train

Every blood in my body goes with the train

And some of it's on the floor

I'm slippin' out to any place

Although I know I've been there before

Ridin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black train

Torn up on the black train

Torn from my southern home

I left a nigger lying dead by the river

I left the Will-O-the-Wisp to roam

Ridin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black train

And I can't get better, I can't get better

Ridin' on the black train

Ridin' on the black train

I'm heat on the black train

And I'm lightin' up the night

With everything I've had and everything I've done

I still can't be satisfied

I'm ridin' on the black train

I'm ridin' on the black train
