Red Red - Long Black Train Lyrics




Mothers, fathers, babes in arms,
Try our best to keep them safe from harm
But that long, black train comes for us all

Rich man, poor man, sinner man, saint,
It don't who you are, child, or who you ain't
That long, black train comes for us all

You can try to bargain, you can try to pray,
You can say some business about Judgement day
But the only one truth that you're bound to find
Is we all got one shot, so you might as well be kind

Times are changing, oh so fast
Know the sweetness never lasts
That long, black train, comes for us all

Doctor, lawyer, beggar man, thief,
You can cover up your eyes or look on in disbelief
You can hide under your bed, shake your fist up at the sky
But sooner or later, child, we're all gonna die

Listen well to what I say,
You can't know the hour, you can't guess the day
When the long, black train comes for us all

Things fall apart, I been told,
Oh the center does not hold
And that ground you walk on will shift like sand
So hold tight to your love and give all you can.
