Il testo della Long train gone

It's trouble on the left and trouble on the right
I've run from trouble nearly all my life
It's true, yes, it's true

I met a dark-haired lady with a crystal ball
She said, "the law's gonna get ya and stick ya behind stone walls"
Then she took my money and run away

Well, i was like a long train gone
Gone a long time ago
Long train gone
Gone like you've never seen before

I saw the fireballs flashin' through the joker's eyes
But when she reached for my heart, i cut her right down to stone
I left her standin' alone

I stayed low to the east of the west bound rain
I barely missed the flood before it fell down again at dawn
I thought it best to move on again

And i was like a long train gone
Gone a long time ago
Long train gone
Gone like you've never seen before, alright

When the walls come tumblin' down and the rain continues to fall
And you feel yourself shakin' when the light's gone out in the hall
And you're all alone

Son, be like a long train gone
Gone a long time ago
Long train gone
Gone like you've never seen before
Gone like you've never seen before
