Marty Stuart - Long Train Gone Lyrics
Written by Marty StuartIt's trouble on the left and trouble on the rightI've run from trouble nearly all my lifeIt's true, yes it's trueI met a dark-haired lady with a crystal ballShe said the law's gonna get ya, and stick ya behind stone wallsThen she took my money and run awayWell I was like a long, train, goneGone, a long time agoLong, train, goneGone like you've never seen beforeI saw the fireballs flashin' through the joker's eyesBut when she reached for my heart, I cut her right down to stoneI left her standin' aloneI stayed low to the east in the west bound rainI thought I missed the flood before it fell down again at dawnI thought it best to move on againAnd I was like a long, train, goneGone, a long time agoLong, train, goneGone like you've never seen beforeWhen the walls come tumblin' down,And the rain continues to fallAnd you feel yourself shakin' when the light's gone out in the hallAnd you're all aloneSon, be like a long, train, goneGone, a long time agoLong, train, goneGone like you've never seen beforeGone like you've never seen before
