Lyrics
Southbound Train
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Liberty, laughing and shaking your head
Can you carry the torch that'll bring home the dead?
To the land of their fathers whose lives you have led
To the station at the end of the town
On the southbound train going down
Equality, quietly facing the fist
Are you angry and tired
That your point has been missed?
Will you go in the back-room
And study the list
Of the gamblers using the phone
On the southbound train going down
Fraternity, failing to fight back the tears
Will it take an eternity breaking all the fears?
And what will the passenger do when he hears-
That he's already paid for the crown
On the southbound train going down
