Crack of dawn the rooster moans
Wake up boy you´re far from home
Serpentine the tracks in flames
Longest path the devil laid
Led you straight aboard this rusty train
Lift your head cuz you can´t sleep
Bite your lip cuz you can´t eat
Darkest den the devil made
Jesus weeps but he´s been paid
Not to ride inside this rusty train
Buzzard´s breath the rooster moans
Stow it boy you´re far from home
Stow your sorrows stow your fear
What´d you do to end up here
End up on the devil´s rusty train
Wake up boy you´re far from home
Serpentine the tracks in flames
Longest path the devil laid
Led you straight aboard this rusty train
Lift your head cuz you can´t sleep
Bite your lip cuz you can´t eat
Darkest den the devil made
Jesus weeps but he´s been paid
Not to ride inside this rusty train
Buzzard´s breath the rooster moans
Stow it boy you´re far from home
Stow your sorrows stow your fear
What´d you do to end up here
End up on the devil´s rusty train
