Well, faith flies off the mountain everyday   No parachute and no crash to see   Yes, my faith flies off a mountain everyday   And there's no parachute, no goddamn crash to see      Fly the little monkey up a telegraph pole   Sending out a signal to somebody, somebody   Somebody, please somebody      I want to hear a song that makes me believe in something   I want to hear a song that makes me believe something   I want to hear a song that makes me believe   There's something to believe in   I want to hear a song that makes me believe      Had a dream   I was ridin' on a train that wasn't bound for glory   Ridin' on a train, the train was bound for hell   Ridin' on a train that wasn't bound for glory, that's for sure   Ridin' on a train bound for hell      The engine with human blood was damp   The headlight was her brimstone lamp   And then for fuel I shoveled in bones   And the furnace roared with a thousand groans      The tank was filled with lager beer   The devil himself was engineer   The passengers were a mixed up crew   Churchman in his battered suit      The rich in broadcloth, poor in rags   Handsome girls, wrinkled hags   Black men, yellow, red and white   Chained together, fearful sight      The dream was stormin' at full pace   The sulfer fumes burned hands and face   Wilder and wilder the country grew   Faster and faster the engine flew      Loud and terrible thunder crashed   Whiter brighter lighin' flash   Higher still the air became   So clothes will burn from each shrinking frame      There came a fearful ear splitting yell   Yell satan dance, the next stop's hell   T'was then the passengers shrieked with pain   And begged the devil to stop the train   Stop this train      He shrieked and roared and grinned with glee   And mocked and laughed at their misery   "My friends you've bought your seats on this road   I've got to get through with a complete load"      You've pulled in the weak, you've cheated the poor   You starving tramp, you turned from the door   You've lit up gold till your purses burst   You've given a cleargy a beastly lust      You've mocked at God in your hellful pride   You've killed and you've cheated, you've plundered and lied   You've come across men and you've swore and you've stole   Not a one but a splurge and in body and soul   Body and soul      So you've paid full fare and I'll carry you through   If there's one don't be loud, I'd like to know who   And here's a time when I ain't no liar   A land that will save you, a land of fire      And your flesh will scorch in the flames that roar   You'll sizzle and burn from [incomprehensible] to core   Then I awoke with a thrilling cry   My were clothes were wet, my hair stood high      And I prayed as I've never until that hour   To be saved from hell and the devil's power   At present my vows were not in vain   That I paid no fare on that hellbound train
