Lyrics
Smokin' a long black Cadillac
The engine winding down
He'd park it up on the sidewalk
Like he owned the whole downtown
He'd end up talkin' to some chick
Through a thick dose of smoke
Through the thick haze of a Southern comfort Coke
He'd say, "Girl, you're hotter than the hinges
Hangin' on the gates of hell
Don't be afraid to turn to me, babe
If he don't treat you well"
And by he, he meant me
So I laughed and shook his hand
He laughed a little bit louder, yeah
And then he'd yell up at the band
"Play a train song
Pour me one more round
Make 'em leave my boots on
On the day that they lay me down
I am a runaway locomotive
Out of my one-track mind
I'm looking for any kind of trouble
That I can find"
I got this old black leather jacket
I got a pack of Marlboro Reds
I got a stash of drugs in my pocket
Thoughts in my own head
I got the right to run
Until I've got to walk
Until I gotta crawl
I got this moment
Play a train song
Pour me one more round
Make 'em leave my boots on
On the day that they lay me down
I am a runaway locomotive
Out of my one-track mind
I'm looking for any kind of trouble
That I can find
In the television blizzard light
We looked at Ronnie's face
We found cold beer on the sofa
That lit a smile across his face
And though I tried with all of my sadness
I could never weep
For a man who looked to me like
He died laughing in his sleep
Singing a train song
Drinking one last round
Make 'em leave his boots on
On the day that they laid him down
He was a runaway locomotive
Out of his one-track mind
Play a train song
Play a train song
Play a train song
Thank you so much
It's nice to see you movin' around a little bit
