Train Long Suffering - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Woo-wooooooo Woo!

In the name of pain!

(In the name of pain and suffering)

In the name of pain!

(In the name of pain and suffering)

There comes a train!

Punched from the tunnel

(The tunnel of love is long and lonely)

Engines steaming like a fist

(A fistful of memories)

Into the jolly jaw of morning

(Yeah! O yeah!)

O baby it gets smashed!

(You know that it gets smashed)

O baby it gets smashed!

(You know that it gets smashed)

I kick every goddamn splinter

Into all the looking eyes in the world

Into all the laughing eyes

Of all the girls in the world

Oooooo-woooooh

She ain’t never comin' back

She ain’t never comin' back

She ain’t never comin' back

She ain’t never comin' back

And the name of the pain is…

And the name of the pain is…

And the name of the pain is…

And the name of the pain is…

The name of the pain is

A train long-suffering

On rails of pain

(On rails of pain and suffering)

There comes a train

(There comes a train long-suffering)

On rails of pain

(On rails of pain and suffering)

O baby blow its whistle in the rain

Woo-oo Woo!

Woo-oo Woo!

Who’s the engine driver?

(The engine drivers over yonder)

His name is Memory

(His name is Memory)

O Memory is his name

(Woooooo-wo!)

Destination: Misery

(Pain and misery)

O pain and misery

(Pain and misery)

O pain and misery

Hey!

It’s a train long-suffering

O Lord a train!

(A long black train)

Of pain and suffering

Each night so black

(O yeah! So black)

And in the darkness of my sack

I’m missing you baby

(I'm missing you)

And I just dunno what to do

(dunno what to do)

(Train long-suffering)
