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 gonna have to abandon ?
There's slow, slow train coming up around the bend.
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
There's slow, slow train coming up around the bend.
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 to Paris
And there's slow, slow train coming up around the bend.
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more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 slow, slow train coming up around the bend.
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 slow, there's slow train coming up around the bend.
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 loose 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 slow, slow train coming up around the bend.
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's sure do bother me to see my loved ones turning into puppets

It's a slow, slow train
But it's moving on
Oh, I've got my ticket
Don't, don't pass me by
If I don't get on, ooh
I'll break right down and cry
Only got one a life to live
On this earth, oh, get me there
Won't you please
Conductor sir?
It's a slow, slow train
But it's moving on
Now everybody got a ticket
You, you and me
It's up to you to catch a ride
That's how it's got to be
Everyone, oh, yeah
Has to prove he's a man
Oh, make it easy on yourself
'Cause there's no helping hand
It's a slow, slow train
But it's moving on
It's a slow, slow train

I can't afford a ticket
On an old Dakota airplane
Gotta jump a ride
On a cattle trucking slowtrain
Guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun.
I wrote a rocking song
Gonna sing it at the station
Finish all the words
When I reach my destination
Guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun.
Hey Mama, please now don't you fret none
Don't worry but please don't you forget
Hey Mama, please don't get upset none
Gotta leave and find me something better
Hey Mama, things are gonna work out fine now
Believe me need for you to write
Hey Mama, things are gonna work out fine now
I've got a friend said that she'd invite me.I came here in the morning
And I crept out in the middle of the night
I gave nobody warning I was leaving
And I felt it was right
Now I'm off again
And it sure is feeling alright.
Got a feeling that I'm living
With a ticket and I won't jump a ride
It's no good you believing
That my leaving was a-wrong, it was right
Now I'm off again
And it sure is feeling alright.

Love fails to die
Remain survive
It feeds off life
Weary frustration it's not enough
I'm pleading with the Solitary one
In this temptation we're without blood
I'm weakened by a solitary one
Redemption lies
In blood-filled eyes
Weary frustration it's not enough
I'm pleading with the Solitary one
In this damnation we're without blood

You know it gets too much and sometimes she cries like a baby
But she's almost certain it'll pass when she becomes a lady
But while she's still a young girl love is avoiding her
And thank God for the radio and the color TV, oh, oh, oh, oh
Heroes are hard to find in the cold world but not in her mind
And she's talking to Jesus during the radio station breaks
And she's on her knees, pourin' on her knees
Asking how the world can be so cold to her
And she listens to the records, playing on the radio
And she's falling in love with a singer
Now she's feelin' better and she's feelin' good
But she's coming down by the time the song is over
And she starts feelin' lonely
Feelin' she's the only ordinary Solitary One
All alone the Solitary One
And hurrying home oh God its been one of those bad days
But with a flick of a switch and a twist of the dial
She gets love on the airwaves
And they send her favorite lovers to keep her satisfied
And she's talkin to Jesus during the radio station breaks
And she's on her knees falling on her knees
Asking how the world can be so cold to her
And she listens to the records playing on the radio and she's fallin'
in love with a singer
Now she's feelin' better cause she's feelin' good
But she's comin' down by the time the song is over
And she starts feelin' lonely
Feelin' she's the only ordinary the Solitary One all alone Solitary One
And she's on her knees pouring on her knees
Asking how the world can be so cold to her
And she starts feelin' lonely
Feelin' she's the only ordinary Solitary One
All alone the Solitary One
All alone the Solitary One
All alone the Solitary One
All alone the Solitary One

It's a slow, slow train, but it's moving on
Well I've got my ticket, so don't, pass me by
'Cause if I don't get on board, I just might, break down
and cry
'Cause I've just got one life, to live, on this earth
Oh, get me there, won't you please, conductor sir
'Cause it's a slow, slow train, but it's moving on
Well everybody gets a ticket, you, you and me
But it's up to you to catch a ride, now that's how it's
got to be
And if you want to ride that train to that peaceful,
promised land
Oh, you've got to give your heart to Jesus, and put your
ticket in his hand
'Cause it's a slow, slow train, but it's moving on

There?s a slow train coming
It?s movin? on down the line
Steel wheels on iron rails
Tonight I?m fixin? to die
Woo, I hope you don?t mind pretty mama
Woo-hoo, hope you don?t mind if I go
?Cause when the steam from the slow train rises
I ain?t gonna see you anymore
There?s a slow train coming
Coming right on time
Smokestacks and bottle lightning
This jumper on the line
Woo, I can?t do without it anymore pretty mama
Yes, I can?t do it without it anymore
?Cause when the steam from the slow train rises
I ain?t gonna see you anymore
There?s a slow train coming
To march us home from war
With my leather boots and my haversack
Sure can take it no more
Woo, I cried for her baby when I saw you there
Woo-hoo, I cried for her just the same
?Cause when the steam from the slow train rises
I?m gonna cry for you just the same
Well there?s a slow train coming
Carrying the mighty worker hordes
Eighteen days in the cotton field
Enough to put a man out of (?)
Woo, It?s time to move on pretty mama
Woo-hoo, Yes it?s time to move on as I go
As the steam from my slow train rises

Yeah, I'm nameless
Love found me lost
But then I'm thankful, thankful righting the wrongs forgotten
Blessings, blessings down on my knees
My soul is endless, endless and I'm so relieved
But if you must be concerned
[chorus]
I'm on a slow drain as you watch me burn
I'm on my way back down
But if you must be concerned I'm
On a slow drain as you watch me burn, slow drain,
Yes I'm wasted, wasted end of my rope
But then I'm brain dead, brian dead
You make me choke new
Colic baby, baby kicks and it screams
My soul is endless, endless and I'm so relieved but if you
Must be concerned
[rpt. chorus]

A journey thru the cold breath of time
searching the insanity of mine
mourning as I dwell among no laughter
hoping my existance ends hereafter
Astray the bridge I burned
to where sorrows fade
this torment now I earned
Emptiness is character of my destiny
my soul is drained and nowhere is
where I will be
Shadows... Of starlike blackened fire
taking... This soul to its loathsome trial
Thru astral layers the voyage goes on
perished among the stars
forever to be gone
to where nothing is and nothing was
...and their whispers greet my loss
In the watery mirror of destiny
I can not see my own reflection
thru the dead halls of infinity
I hear them sing for me

Lyrics is from Hooker's metal lyrics page:

Millers Dale for Tideswell
Kirby Muxloe
Mow Cop and Scholar Green
No more will I go to Blandford Forum and Mortiehow,
On the slow train from Midsummer Norton and Mumby Row,
No churns, no porter,
No cat on a seat,
At Chorlton-cum-Hardy and Chester-le-Street
We won't be meeting again on the slow train.
I'll travel no more from Littleton Badsey to Openshaw,
At Long Stanton I'll stand well clear of the doors no more,
No whitewashed pebbles,
No up and no down,
From Thornby Four Crosses to Dunstable Town,
I won't be going again on the slow train.
On the main line and the goods siding,
The grass grows high,
At Dog Dyke, Tumby Woodside, and Troublehouse Halt.
The sleepers sleep at Audlem and Ambergate,
No passenger waits on Chittening platform of Cheslyn Hay,
No-one departs, no-one arrives,
From Selby to Goole,
From St. Erth to St. Ives,
They all passed out of our lives,
On the slow train,
On the slow train.
Cockermouth for Buttermere
On the slow train.
Armly Moor Arram
Pye Hill and Somercotes
On the slow train.
Windmill End.....

I’ve been on my way for such a long time
Singing the blues
Up and down this road
Seen good times and I’ve seen bad times sometimes
Boys I want to go back
To the time and place I used to know
Let me ride - ride on a slow train
Carry me home - carry me home
Been out on the street with the brokedown and hungry
Drank wine with kings and queens
Seen right and wrong
Now I’m feeling kind of tired and weary
Wished a slow train
Come and take me home
Let me ride - ride on a slow train…
Time will come when my travelling days are over
At the end of this winding road
Where the journey ends
Don’t you bury me boys
Just leave me standing at the crossroads
I know a slow train be coming around the bend
