Resurrection Band - Lincoln's Train lyrics
[Resurrection Band - Lincoln's Train lyrics]
Mr lincoln's train going by
Spilling smoke into these bloody fields
All the people stood and cried
Our tears are the same colour we
Can all hold hands and mourn but me
I'm still asking myself why I'm not
Any freer than I was before
Mr lincoln, are you free now?
Was it worth what it finally cost?
If I had something to believe in, oh
I could bear this endless cross
I got no home, they sold my family
I got no job, ain't got no vote
Them books, they're all mysteries to me
Can't read or write - I got no hope
The train, it just keeps rolling
Cold as steel and dark as night
It don't give me no answers, no, no
It don't pay me no mind
And the scenery just keeps
Changing, but these folks
They just stay the same
Same old fearful eyes are staring, asking me
To take the blame for their shame
For their shame
