Lyrics
GRAVY TRAIN
Written by Johnny Bollow.
© 2005 Johnny Bollow
Verse 1
Here on the gravy train no one knows where they?re bound
But the click of the tracks is a very soothing sound.
Steak in the dining car, cigars in the smoking lounge:
They?re just cattle-cars on the way to my slaughterhouse
Refrain
All aboard My gravy train
Room for more
On my gravy train
Verse 2
I got a private car with you in mind
Every thing you need is here, just tell yourself a lie
Tell yourself not to change, let me take care of you
Tell yourself you deserve the best till you believe it?s true
(Repeat refrain)
Chorus
I?m the whistle I?m the conductor
Would you like a little bit more, sir?
I?m the upgrade
I?m your best friend
And you?ll make a perfect addition
To my trophy case at the end of the tracks
Bridge
Ask the cigarette girl for just one more
I know they?ll suit your taste
And before you retire to your compartment
can I get a hot towel for your face?
(Repeat refrain and chorus)
