lyrics

HELLBOUND TRAIN (Mark Utley - Sleep Cat Music/BMI)

Can you hear it in the distance
Down the mountainside?
See it burnin' through the darkness
Throttle open wide?
Can you hear it in the distance
Hear that hellbound train?

Well, it's feedin' on the lost souls
Hear them weep and moan (2x)
Well, it's feedin' on the lost souls
On that hellbound train

Gonna ride, gonna ride
Gonna ride, ride, ride, ride, ride
Gonna ride it when it gets here
Ride that hellbound train

Gonna ride it when it gets here
All my hope is gone (2x)
Gonna ride it when it gets here
Ride that hellbound train
Gonna drink a little whiskey
Bourbon, beer, and wine (2x)
Gonna drink a little whiskey
'Til I lose my mind

Gonna find a little baby
Do that snake hip move (2x)
Gonna find a little baby
Take her with me, too

Gonna ride, gonna ride
Gonna ride, ride, ride, ride, ride
Gonna ride it when it gets here
Ride that hellbound train

Well, I'm fallin' on my knees
Sayin' Jesus, save my soul (2x)
'Cause I hear it in the distance
And my blood runs cold
