the new lost city ramblers - wreck of the tennessee gravy train كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
the people of tennessee want to know who wrecked our gravy train
the one we thought was run so well and now who can we blame
they want to know who greased the track and started it down the road
this same ol’ train contained our money to build our highway home

[chorus]
but now we’re up against it and no use to raise a row
for of all the times i’ve ever seen, we’re sure up against it now
the only thing that we can do, is do the best we can
so follow me good people, i’m bound for the promised land

[verse 2]
now i could be a banker, without the least excuse
but look at the treasurer of tennessee and tell me what’s the use
we lately looted tennessee for just five million bucks
the bonds were issued and the money tied up and now we’re in tough luck

[verse 3]
some lay it all on parties, some blame it on others you see
but now that you can plainly tell what happened to tennessee
the brakemen pulled the throttle, the conductor rang the bell
and the engineer hollered “all aboard” and the banks all went to h_ll
[chorus]
but now we’re up against it and no use to raise a row
for of all the times i’ve ever seen, we’re sure up against it now
the only thing that we can do, is do the best we can
so follow me good people, i’m bound for the promised land
