Punch A Train

Ever want for something so bad for so long
Then find what you want and it feels all wrong
Halos hearts and harps they make a real fine tune
Though sitting on your hands don’t do a damn bit of use

The broke down don’t mean the dead broke
No silver spoon is gonna make you rich
Burning redwood and drinking gasoline
Methadone or Jim Beam to ease that kick

I’d punch a train just to get back home
For guitar strings and country songs only last so long
You can’t bleed no blood from no damn stone
I’d punch a train to get back home

Hard days and wrong ways going on ten long years
Down a road so long to carve that song that burns your ears
Halos hearts and harps make a damn fine muse
While ten foot of rope, it’ll make a real good noose
