Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

Sometimes

I feel so low-down and disgusted

Can't help but wonder what's happening to my companions

Are they lost or are they found?

Have they counted the cost it'll take to bring down

All their earthly principles they're going to have to abandon?

There's a slow, slow train coming up around the bend

[Verse 2]

I had a woman

Down in Alabama

She was a backwoods girl, but she sure was realistic

She said, "Boy, without a doubt

Have to quit your mess and straighten out

You could die down here, be just another accident statistic"

And there's a slow, slow train coming up around the bend

[Verse 3]

All that foreign oil

Controlling American soil

Look around you, it's just bound to make you embarrassed

Sheiks walking around like kings

Wearing fancy jewels and nose rings

Deciding America's future from Amsterdam and Paris

And there's a slow, slow train coming up around the bend

[Verse 4]

Man's ego is inflated

His laws are outdated,

They don't apply no more, you can't rely no more to be standing around waiting

In the home of the brave

Jefferson turning over in his grave

Fools glorifying themselves, trying to manipulate Satan

And there's a slow, slow train coming up around the bend

[Verse 5]

Big-time negotiators

False healers and woman-haters

Masters of the bluff and masters of the proposition

But the enemy I see

Wears a cloak of decency

All non-believers and men-stealers talking in the name of religion

And there's a slow, slow train coming up around the bend

[Verse 6]

People starving and thirsting

Grain elevators are bursting

Oh, you know it costs more to store the food than it do to give it

They say, "Lose your inhibitions

Follow your own ambitions"

They talk about a life of brotherly love; show me someone who knows how to live it

There's a slow, slow train coming up around the bend

[Verse 7]

Well, my baby went to Illinois

With some bad-talking boy she could destroy

A real suicide case, but there was nothing I could do to stop it

I don't care about economy

I don't care about astronomy

But it sure does bother me to see my loved ones turning into puppets

And there's a slow, slow train coming up around the bend
