It's a gone dead train
  Yes, it's a gone dead train
  
  My engine was pumpin' steam
  And I was grindin' at you hard and fast
  Burnin' down the rails, tryin' to heat the way
  Haulin' ass and ridin' up the track
  And I laughed at the conductor who was tellin' me my coal
  It would never last
  
  But then the fire in my boiler
  Up and quit before I came
  Ain't no empty cellar
  Like a gone dead train
  
  Once was at a time when I could
  Mama shave 'em dry
  And raise a fever ice-down chill
  Waitin' at the station
  With a heavy loaded sack
  Savin' up and holdin' just to spill
  Shootin' my supply through my demon's eye
  Instead of holdin' my time, I hope I will
  
  But then the fire in my boiler
  Up and quit before I came
  There ain't no empty cellar
  Needs a gone dead train
  
  Yes it's a gone dead train
  I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
  It's a gone dead train
  Yes it's a gone dead train
  I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
  It's a gone dead train
  Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to learn
  
  There ain't no easy day
  When your daily run's a downhill pull
  And there ain't no easy way
  Wishin' for some jelly roll
  There ain't no switch been made
  To make your juicy lemon find
  A spring to run a dry well full
  
  But then the fire in my boiler
  Up and quit before I came
  Ain't no empty cellar
  Needs a gone dead train
  
  
  Yes it's a gone dead train
  I'm gonna teach it to learn
  You know it's a gone dead train
  Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn
  It's a gone dead train
  It's a gone dead train, you gotta learn
  It's a gone dead train
  Gonna teach it, gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn.
