In the Shuffling madness of the locomotive
breath, Runs the all time loser, headlong to
his death He feels the piston scraping steam
breaking on his brow Old Charlie stole the
handle and the train that watched her go You
know he couldn't slow down No he couldn't
slow down He sees his children jumping off at
stations one by one His woman and his best
friend in bed and having fun Crawling down
the corridor on his hands and knees Old
Charlie stole the handle and the train that
watched her go No he couldn't slow down
No he couldn't slow down He hears the
silence howling catches angels as they fall
And the all time winner has got him by the
balls He picks up Gideons Bible open at page
one I thank God he stole the handle and the
train that watched her go You know he couln't
slow down No he couldn't slow down
