Woke tonight from my sleep, In a restless hell
Chains lying cross the floor, Outside a distant yell
Eyes stare straight in front of me, A dream I can't return
On this dead end street in Tennessee, A trip I soon will learn
That what I thought was an escape, A chance to get away
Could all come rushing to a halt, Slow down and live today
But don't find yourself alone, And staring down at the road
Hear the cries of battle lullabies, And the dead's solemn load
As I stared into his eyes, He said rise from this bed
The wheel's roll slow outside, It's the crawl of the dead
To them the war is raging, Lee's last battle call
Has stirred them from their endless sleep, Tonight they will not fall
Look now son the scene out front, As they move into the night
No one's told them their time is up, And they'll march on to fight
But don't find yourself alone, And staring down at the road
Because the preacher won't save you from a devil's fate, And the dead's fading load
One soul's stuck down on the rail
Pushing and a pulling in the night time air
Everyone's stuck down on the rail
Waiting on the word that takes him home
One soul's stuck down on the rail
Pushing and a pulling in the night time air
Everyone's stuck down on the rail
Waiting on the word that takes him home
I can remember what kept me, Alive and well today
As the mist broke way for the army, To find solace on their way
Was not the peace of this Tennessee home, Or a life I'd left behind
But words coming from the glass eyes, Of a shackled man in time
Could make me see what they'd lost, By handing over their rights
To the tongue of a judge and jury, Who made sure they'd always fight
But don't find yourself alone, And staring down at the road
Because one man's freedom could mean a curse, On the dead's final load
One soul's stuck down on the rail
Pushing and a pulling in the night time air
Everyone's stuck down on the rail
Waiting on the word that takes him home
One soul's stuck down on the rail
Pushing and a pulling in the night time air
Everyone's stuck down on the rail
Waiting on the word that takes him home
Waiting on the word that takes him home
Waiting on the word that takes him home
