Long Train Gone Lyrics

Written by Marty Stuart

It's trouble on the left and trouble on the right

I've run from trouble nearly all my life

It's true, yes it's true

I met a dark-haired lady with a crystal ball

She said the law's gonna get ya, and stick ya behind stone walls

Then she took my money and run away

Well I was like a long, train, gone

Gone, a long time ago

Long, train, gone

Gone like you've never seen before

I saw the fireballs flashin' through the joker's eyes

But when she reached for my heart, I cut her right down to stone

I left her standin' alone

I stayed low to the east in the west bound rain

I thought I missed the flood before it fell down again at dawn

I thought it best to move on again

And I was like a long, train, gone

Gone, a long time ago

Long, train, gone

Gone like you've never seen before

When the walls come tumblin' down,

And the rain continues to fall

And you feel yourself shakin' when the light's gone out in the hall

And you're all alone

Son, be like a long, train, gone

Gone, a long time ago

Long, train, gone

Gone like you've never seen before

Gone like you've never seen before
