Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Can't help but wonder what's happenin to my companions
Are they lost or are they found
Have they counted the cost it'll take to bring down
All their earthly principles they're gonna have to abandon?
There's a slow, slow train comin' up round the bend.
I had a woman down in Alabama
She was a backwoods girl but she sure was realistic
She said "Boy, without a doubt
Have to quit your mess and straighten out
You could die down here, be just another accident statistic"
There's a slow, slow train comin' up around the bend.
From the song and the album Slow Train Coming.
