Testo Ride the Rail - Giant Sand
Testo della canzone Ride the Rail (Giant Sand), tratta dall'album Blurry Blue Mountain
Those women left behind
Way back down the line
With their love unattended
Giving in at times undefended
When the nightly caress
And the day's duress
Only get blended
Reality gets suspended
So herein lies the tale
Of their men who ride the rail
Blood a boil and hearts on fire
Become a certain breed
Where the dangers fore fit heed
Laying rail for the silver flyer
What about at the beginning of the line
Down deep in the mine
With dusted lungs and soiled attire
That rock that allows the train to live
The notion's mad as a loco motive
Busting it up now with the
Molly maguires
Molly maguires
From the pennsylvania coal
To the arizona copper sun
Putting the motion
In locomotion
And what about the hellish heat
Where a drop of water tastes so sweet
Digging rock while the sky's on fire
That stuff grown in stone
Breaking machine, man's will and bone
Getting the copper for just pennies
Getting the copper for the wire
These men hoped to get enough
So life wouldn't be so tough
On the women they've fallen for
Or will still desire
Like those who ride the rail
Whose passions will prevail
Blood a boil and hearts on fire
Molly maguires
All starting with the molly maguires
Way back down the line
All the women left behind
With blood a boil and
Their hearts on fire
