"Subway Train" lyrics
"Subway Train"
I can't ever understand
Why my life been cursed, poisoned, condemned
When I've been tryin' every night to hold you near me
But I'm a-tellin' you it ain't easy
Ever since I've been ridin'
Right on the subway train
You can hear the whistle blowin'
You might think I'm insane
And now your friends, they're fillin' up my car
But you're so busy readin' Suzy says, you can't look now
You didn't see your lovers, they're all dressed in rags
You know you had us pushin' up posies just tryna get you fed
We was all ridin'
Right on a subway train
And you can hear the captain shoutin'
He thinks I've gone insane
'Cause I keep on ridin'
Keep on ridin'
'Cause I keep on ridin', ridin', ridin'
Keep on ridin', yeah
You stop and you stare as I'm leavin' my favorite place
We have no regards, you can't even find a trace
You gotta get on back to Daddy, that's all it's gonna be
He's got the poison, black art of the pimps, but don't you stick, stick
I seen those travel
Right on the subway train
And you can hear the captain shoutin'
He thinks we've all gone insane
'Cause we keep on ridin', ridin', ridin'
Keep on ridin'
'Cause we keep on ridin', ridin', ridin'
Keep on ridin'
See the train
Gettin' that open track
Well, I'ma hopin'
It's gonna bring my
Baby back
That's why I've got to say
Dinah, won't you blow
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?
Dinah, won't you blow
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?
Sing, someone's in the kitchen with Dinah
I know, whoa-whoa
I said, someone's in the kitchen with Dinah
I just know
We are ridin', ridin', ridin'
