Night Train Lyrics by MC Duke

1991

[Scratching: 8 bars]
All Aboard!

[Verse 1: MC Duke]
Dark as night, got a sight with a flashlight
Here's a thought that I had last night
Positive thought I was taught from the main
Never taught to report or be caught on a low plane
Don't be insane, this is the brain game
We die, lie, try to defy the same fate
Slaying masses, killed by the classes
Slowly you show me, I drown in molasses
Sweet is the smile, greetings I made
But you can't repair bullet wounds with a band aid
Never fade to gray, cos it pays to play
Are you going my way? I'm on the night train

[Scratching: 4 bars]
Night train
[Scratching: 4 bars]

[Verse 2: MC Duke]
Thoughts and problems seem to concern me
Preserve concern kept my nerve on the journey
Time for fasting, I'm not the last in line
You'll find that I do the casting
While you're basing, others are facing
Don't like the flavour of food you're tasting
Authority chasing, others amazing
A number no wonder they're on your case and
Food for thought, just bought, here's the meal
The cuts are deep cos you eat with the cold steel
Pleasure you measure seems to end in pain
All aboard again, I'm on the night train

[Scratching: 4 bars]
Night train
[Scratching: 4 bars]

[Verse 3: MC Duke]
Questions, suggestions, designed to blow your mind
Rap your wrist, you dissed cos I showed the time
And you owe me mine, cos you're lowly slime
Try to talk but walk with a whole B line
No use, I'm powerful for my recital
Saw the colour in the eyes of your idol
Blue for you, it's true who, but not my crew
Is it all in the mind or what we do?
Can you distinguish what is within this?
Is it bliss or a twist to begin this -
Story of glory surely, I'm sure we -
Can bring the plane to sane
Get on the night train

[Scratching: 4 bars]
Night train
[Scratching: 4 bars]

Break it on down

[Scratching: 4 bars]

[Verse 4: MC Duke]
It was me who out done you, I make you wonder
A voice like thunder, rhymes just to run you
I'm coarse, of course you lost, no remorse, you're hoarse
A force, send a rhyme like morse code
I out sold but not sold out, I shout
Like a slap in a mouth so have no doubt
That I'm a river or roarer or a high scorer
I won't bore you, style like a lawyer
I plead my case in case you bleed I flip seed
And heed, all books I read and need -
I say more? Suckers I slay
All aboard again, I'm on the night train
Not a train that goes to nowhere
But I go there so let me show where
That each and every man has a plan and
Makes a stand and no-ones in command
And damn those who won't make it possible
To those I suppose I act hostile
I bring the thing to King, "Let freedom rain"
All aboard again, I'm on the night train

[Scratching: 4 bars]
Think about it, I'm on the night train
[Scratching: 4 bars]
Yeah
