Everybody's tired
Been climbing walls of doubt
Everybody tried
Nobody got out
And this is what it sounds like
And this is how it feels
And I just can't remember
The way it used to be
The way it used to be
How it used to be
But now
The Gravy Train Runners are coming to town
They are coming to make you smile
Oh yes
The Gravy Train Runners are coming to town
They are coming to make things right
The sky is filled with flowers
The band plays with fire
We're at the top of our voices
And we're feeling even higher
And this is what it sounds like
And this is how it feels
And everybody's cheering
As the train is getting near
The train is very near
The Gravy Train is here
The Gravy Train Runners are coming to town
They are coming to make you smile
Oh yes
The Gravy Train Runners are coming to town
They are coming to make things right
And this is not the last station
And the train, it will not stop for long
Some get off here, some get on
Wake up your mind, son
Make your mind up, before it's gone
Gone, and you're not on, and now, it's gone
This is what it sounds like
This is how it feels
And everybody's wondering
What they're still doing here
So they climb back into the shadows
Shadows of doubt
Too tired to think
About another way out
Another way out
There's no way out!
Gone, gone and you're not on
And now it's gone
Don't wait too long
Or it'll be gone
You're not that strong
Too strong
This song's too long,
But now it's done
Just say so long and I'll be gone.
