Train Kept Rolling On

Train Kept Rolling On - The Pogues

One thing you can rely upon

You can't rely on anyone

With no one left to call upon

Now you're so alone

A broken clock a speeding train

Your damaged baggage here again

Your gypsey suitcase down the drain

Time marches on

Those panic morning on the screen

River of oblivion

I looked around but you were gone

Train kept rolling on

And I said to myself "it's the end"

And I looked but could not find a friend

And I wished I had never begun

This race which is already run

It's empty in the westward doom

It's empty in the living room

The lights are there's no one home

You left home again

The sun man postponed the sky

The terminator has to die

Los Angeles is burning down

I am not surprised

And I said to myself "it's the end"

And I looked but could not find a friend

And I wished I had never begun

This race which is already run

This scene of man looks so forelorn

So until the break of dawn

Face down and his clothes all torn

Wandering this town

Way out beyond the blackest hump

A woman sucks with both right lump

Lonely distance in her eyes

She slowly walked away

Love is gone my love is dead

No further and there is no breath

Everything that's good is gone

Train kept rolling on

And I said to myself "it's the end"

And I looked but could not find a friend

And I wished I had never begun

This race which is already run
