Hear the whistle blowing Train pretty close to leaving Deal with your ghosts Got to deal with your demons Going down to the freight-yard Going down in the pouring rain Gonna play some sad guitar Stand out in the hurricane I will grab a runaway train Grab a runaway train Only two tracks take you out of here baby Now one will make you crazy one will make you sane
I'm going down to the five and dime Gonna trade my merchandise in Broken dreams all my money-making schemes Romantic notions my might-a-beens Going down to the graveyard With a pick ax in my hand Gonna dig down in that georgia red clay Dig down into the promised land
