Sometimes I wonder Can’t help but wonder

Wonder just what is happening to my companions Are they lost or are they found?

Have they counted the cost it’ll take To bring down principle

They’re gonna have to abandon

 

And there’s a Slow Train

Coming round the bend And there’s a

Slow Train

Coming round the bend

 

I had me a woman Down in Alabama

She was a backwoods girl Sure was realistic

She said ‘Boy without a doubt Quit your mess and straight out Or you could die down here

Be another accident statistic’

 

And there’s a Slow Train

Coming round the bend And there’s a

Slow Train

Coming round the bend

 

Big time negotiators False healers Women haters Masters of the bluff

Masters of the proposition They say lose your inhibition Follow your own ambition They talk about brotherly love But nobody lives it

 

And there’s a Slow Train

Coming round the bend And there’s a

Slow Train

Coming round the bend

 

My baby went to Illinois

With some fool she could destroy A real suicide case

There was nothing I could do to stop it I don’t care about economy

I don’t care about astronomy Ah

It sure bothers me when my loved ones Turn into puppets

 

And there’s a Slow Train

Coming round the bend And there’s a

Slow Train

Coming round the bend And there’s a

Slow Train

Coming round the bend
