Ghost trains grey tracks and a crooked skyline Red dust clouds carry shadows from a distant light A million different ways to get to your destination Only one way to get to the otherside Do you know where you are asleep in the back seat Under the southern stars the southern stars 'Cause it's a long way home if you don't know which way to go A one way ticket to an unknown constellation Five stars six-pack will you make it back tonight Big city turns to the other for a conversation While smokestacks glisten in the middle of a forest fire Do you know where you are asleep in the back seat
Under the southern stars the southern stars 'Cause it's a long way home if you don't know which way to go Yeah it's a long way home if you don't know which way to go And we're spinning in circles but we don't care yeah we're miles from anywhere Where the ghost trains go and the grey tracks grow Where the ghost trains go and the grey tracks grow Where the ghost trains go and the grey tracks grow Where the ghost trains go
