Louisiana Train

[Verse 1]
A Louisiana train
Out in Tennessee
Clink of these tracks
Won’t let me sleep
Ain’t seen a bed
In eight damn weeks

Smoke in my lungs
Cold iron seat
Every mile
Takes more from me
Prayers I lost
Between the beats

[Verse 2]
Carried by the wind
Ain’t bedding down
I’m a ghost of a man
On hallowed ground
Tossed by the wind
Slammed to the ground

Names I wore
All burned away
Just bone and breath
Tryin’ to stay
If there’s a God
He’s lookin’ away

[Chorus]
Got no roots
Got no hold
Tryin’ to find rest
Just findin’ cold
Lost my horse
Gun got stole
Never thought I’d
Pay that toll

[Verse 3]
Moon don’t care
Where I roam
Every town
Feels like stone
Doors shut tight
When they see my face
I leave my shadow
In every place

[Bridge]
If I stop now
I won’t rise
The ground’s too sweet
For tired eyes
So I ride the ache
Till the rails run dry
Let the train decide
If I live or die

[Final Chorus / Outro]
Got no roots
Got no hold
Tryin’ to find rest
Just findin’ cold
If I fall here
Let it show
I paid my due
On a southbound road
