Riding the underground, swimmin' in sweat   A rumble above and below, hey, cop don't you know?   The heats on alright   The hot summer day didn't quit for the night      1277 express to heaven   Speeding along like dynamite   1277 express to heaven   Rumbles the steel like a dogfight      You caught me in its spell   Trying to leave but you know darn well   The heat from below can burn your eyes out      Blackened out eyes, scratched on the wall   Stoned out looks from the crowd   The king will not know on the wall it was said   The flash of his cards was sprayed with red, yeah yeah      1277 express to heaven   Speeding along like dynamite   1277 express to heaven   Rumbles the steel like a dogfight      You caught me in its spell   Trying to leave but you know darn well   The heat from below can burn your eyes out      1277 express to, 1277 express to      1277 express to heaven   Speeding along like dynamite   1277 express to heaven   Rumbles the steel like a dogfight      You caught me in its spell   Trying to leave but you know darn well   The heat from below can burn, yeah, burn   Your eyes out, your eyes out   Your eyes out
