Taupin Bernie Tribe Desperation Train Thereabouts I came across another empty hand Another tin cup shaken by some raggedy old man Acting blind and keeping time with his thin white cane He said that Jesus Christ and Judas rode the Desperation Train I've been torn down and rebuilt again Felt the cold fire of madness as it ran through my veins Signals from the green flag Steam rising in the front cab I believe we'd left it all behind On the Desperation Train, they came All the king's horses and all the king's men For all those who ride won't be denied For we all have rode the Desperation Train Into view the ice truck flew with a smiling man aboard All pink cheeks and flashing teeth in a bright white unifo take the strain But Charlie Chaplin and Lou Costello rode the Desperation Train And I've played hard and waited in vain Seen the red sun of sadness slowly sinking in my brain I've been driving in the long spikes Laying rails in the cold night I believe we'd left it all behind On the Desperation Train, they came All the king's horses and all the king's men For all those who feel fate turns the wheel Of the last car home on the Desperation Train We've all been there, been born too late From Joan of Arc to Norma Rae Men without shame, we came The last on this line and freed from our chains For all those who chose the road leading home We'll never put them back together again For all those who ride, they won't be denied For we all have rode the Desperation Train |
