Letra da Música Rocks & Nails de Jonah Tolchin

The 2: 19 took my baby away
Saw it from the window above
I was screaming from the cabin-car didn't know I had gone to far
She stared straight into my eyes
The look that she gave me full of love empty of waiting
For me to come back home one more time

You see I've been traveling trying feed 6 children
Work where-ever I can get it
But after 10 long years of these rambling tears
Her weary mind drove her heart over the line

Passing train, take me away
Leave my bones crush my name
Sing my song, red on your rails
Let me sleep with rocks & nails
Just let me sleep with rocks & nails

Well we drifted on by for the train had never-known
How to love or how to sympathize
Just kept rolling through forests, through the fields through the cities
As I sat there waiting to wake up

But when the station bell ringed clear as her face
Dark as the sting of the thoughts that began to creep to the edges of my brain
I went crazy with the sun, hopped off the train bought gun but
Decided I wanted to go out the same way that she had done

To sleep beneath the rocks & the nails
Search for her soul between to the rails
Our names forever written in the rust
If you don't know how the story goes I bought the finest wedding clothes
Kneeled down between the vibrating steel and proceeded to propose

The train barreled through the mist, to say I do and give the kiss
Of final binding vows ending with eternal lifelessness
The train rolled by the devil laughed said this is the wrath
Of moneys lack, this is the land of freedom only for the rich

Chorus
Passing train, take us away
Leave our bones crush our names
Sing our song, red on your rails
And let us sleep with rocks & nails
Just let us sleep with rocks & nails
