lyrics

Climb aboard
Of this hard luck train
Climb aboard
Gonna make you share my pain
Take my hand
And I’ll drain the life from you
Make you hate and hurt
And cry the way I do

There you are
With your hair-trigger smile
There you are
Got compassion by the mile
You’re alive
But baby not for long
You are kind and weak
But I am mean and strong

Climb aboard
And I’ll double-lock the door
Tell your friends
You won’t be seeing them no more
All your dreams
Will lay scattered across the track
Take my hand
And there ain’t no turning back

Climb aboard
And I’ll double-lock the door
Tell your friends
You won’t be seeing them no more
All your dreams
Will lay scattered across the track
Take my hand
And there ain’t no turning back

Climb aboard
Of this hard luck train
Climb aboard
Gonna make you share my pain
Take my hand
And I’ll drain the life from you
Make you hate and hurt
And cry the way I do
