This one called Gravy Train
This the ting that I call Gravy Train
Can't afford to miss this train
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Another day, another dollar
Feels like every day is the same
And I've given it the best years of my life
For someone else to ride on that Gravy Train
And I say
Here comes the Gravy Train again
You can hear the whistle blowing 'round the bend
You can hear the sound of laughing
As the Gravy Train is passing
But that Gravy Train, it won't be stopping here
They say we're all in this together
But it gets harder every day
And if I work for a hundred years or more
I still won't get my seat on that Gravy Train
And I say
Here comes the Gravy Train again
You can hear the whistle blowing 'round the bend
You can hear the sound of laughing
As the Gravy Train is passing
But that Gravy Train, it won't be stopping here
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Put on some garment, put on me suit
Diamond socks with the Chris Clark shoes
Haffi call a taxi 'cause me nah miss the train
Miss it one time, say me nah miss it again
The rich man living in his castle
Poor man begging at the gate
If we could only get up and stand up for our rights
We could send them all to hell on that Gravy Train (You hear that?)
Oh yeah
Here comes the Gravy Train again
You can hear the whistle blowing 'round the bend
And the carriages are burning
Just to keep the wheels a-turning
But that Gravy Train is running out of steam
Here comes the Gravy Train again
You can hear the whistle blowing 'round the bend
You can hear the sound of laughing
As the Gravy Train is passing
But that Gravy Train, it won't be stopping here
Here comes the Gravy Train again
You can hear the whistle blowing '
Round the bend (Choo choo, choo choo)
You can hear the sound of laughing
As the Gravy Train is passing
But that Gravy Train, it won't be stopping here
One to the left, one to the right
Wine up front, wine a back
Wine and go down two times
There 'pon the platform
Right time, right place, right line
It coulda rain, it coulda sunshine
Train it a come, 10:45
Nah miss the train, not this ya time
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
Choo choo, I said the train is coming
