Devil Train Lyrics by Stray Cats

40

2019

I've been over the valley
I've been over the plains
I'm a traveling man
But when I get home
I'll ride that devil train

I've been over the mountains
I've been thunder and rain
But when I'm all alone
And I search for a spell
I'll ride that devil train

Ride (ride), ride (ride)
Ride the devil train
Ride (ride), ride (ride)
Ride the devil train

He's very clever and cunning
He'll promise life without pain
But if you don't feel pain
Brother you ain't alive
And you're riding that devil train

I'll save you a seat little darling
I'll save you a seat next to me
It's a long way down
It's a rough ride down
You can't get off, don't you see

Ride (ride), ride (ride)
Ride the devil train
Ride (ride), ride (ride)
Ride the devil train

You're pushing too hard
You're pushing too hard
You're pushing too hard, can't you see?
So baby stop shoving
I'll give you some loving
I'll save you a seat next to me

No whiskey tasting
'Cause time is a-wasting
And baby we're feeling okay
It's a rough ride down
It's a long way down
Riding the devil train
