Salvation Train 2

A thousand miles behind me maybe a thousand more I was looking for salvation in a place I've been before But that train don't come around here no more The promised land so far away I'll see the Lord on my judgment day Behind an ocean so far and vast only hope to God this beauty will always last But that train don't come around here no more Forty days in the desert a yellow sky painted red I lose my faith I shed my skin a preacher man from Memphis said he's gonna save my soul Said your gonna find salvation buried in your sin But that train don't come around here no more I'm the joker man always trying not to laugh I'm a naked ghost always looking so sad In a Texas town you'll never stand alone felt the devil bite me through my skin to the bone Nothing to you must be everything to me and I sold my soul for nothing I've been taunted I've been hated congratulate me False hearted judge spoken without a soul to bare he ain't got no redemption his faith was never there Got children dying ain't never been born empty hearts empty hands an empty crown of thorns Praying hands laid upon me the devil's preying eyes so hard to ignore I was looking for salvation when my savior came knocking on the door But that train it don't come around here no more That train it don't come around here no more I'm the preacher man and I ain't never preached a word I'm a hopeless sinner I got nowhere left to turn In a Texas town you never stand alone looks like the devil found a place to come home A million days have passed this way I hope to see a million more A million days have passed this way I hope to see a million more A million days have passed this way I hope to see a million more With you on the salvation train
