In the shuffling madness

Of the locomotive breath

Runs the all time loser

Headlong to his death

Oh he feels the piston scraping

Steam breaking on his brow

Old Charlie stole the handle

And the train it won't stop

Going no way to slow down

To slow down

He sees his children jumping off

At stations one by one

His woman and his best friend

In bed and having fun

Oh he's crawling down the corridor

On his hands and knees

Old Charlie stole the handle

And the train it won't stop

Going no way to slow down

Woho

He hears the silence howling

Catches angels as they fall

And the all time winner

Has got him by the balls

Oh he picks up Gideon's Bible

And open at page one

I think God he stole the handle

And the train it won't stop

Going no way to slow down

To slow down

Going no way to slow down

Going no way to slow down

Going no way to slow down
