I hear the train on the PA coming soon
It's been a long day mid-summer afternoon
And while the train chugs along
I grabbed a pen and wrote a song
About the long train Shillong
You're a long train Shillong
Banging, clanging everybody dangling
A guy at the back screaming I'm fucking hanging
Grab me a collar, as I'm about to holler
That the man on the footboard is soo stranded
So take a call
As he's about the fall
All along train Shillong
You're a long train Shillong
Got a journey now with miles to keep
And with promises to hold right before I sleep
We be getting off at paradise
And behold a great surprise
While the freight breaks for dawn
And all the passengers have gone
You're a long train Shillong
You're a long train Shillong
Dead bodies hover
Dead bodies cease
We've got to pull the chain
And stop the moving train
From running over- it's over
Banging, clanging everybody dangling
A guy at the back screaming I'm fucking hanging
Grab me a collar, as I'm about to holler
That the man on the footboard is soo stranded
So take a call
As he's about the fall
All along train Shillong
You're a long train Shillong
Got a journey now with miles to keep
And with promises to hold right before I sleep
We be getting off at paradise
And behold a great surprise
While the freight breaks for dawn
And all the passengers have gone
You're a long train Shillong
You're a long train Shillong
Dead bodies hover
Dead bodies cease
We've got to pull the chain
And stop the moving train
From running over- it's over
Dead bodies hover
Dead bodies cease
We've got to pull the chain
And stop the moving train
From running over- it's over
I hear the train on the PA coming soon
It's been a long day mid-summer afternoon
And while the train chugs along
I grabbed a pen and wrote a song
About the long train Shillong
You're a long train Shillong
Little thoughts, words and promises that I shall keep
A thousand miles to go before I rest to sleep
And as the freight breaks for dawn
And all the passengers have gone
You're a long train Shillong
You're a long train Shillong
