Train of Fools Songtext
von John Fogerty

This train left the station quarter past midnight
A hundred souls takin′ their last ride
Each of them a traveler driftin' through this life
Silent shadows passing in the night
Ride, ride, ride train of fools


One will take his journey with eyes that cannot see
Nothin′s gonna get to him today
One will use her beauty, and take just what she please
She'll lose it all when beauty fades away
Ride, ride, ride train of fools
Ride, ride, ride train of fools
(Nye, nye, nye-nye-nye, nye, nye-nye, nye, nye)
(Nye, nye-nye, nye, nye)
(Nye, nye, nye-nye-nye, nye, nye-nye, nye, nye)
(Nye, nye-nye, nye, nye)

One will be a rich man at least that's what he′ll say
Waste his life chasin′ after gold
And one will be addicted chained to the devil's cross
That one′s gonna die before he's old
Ride, ride, ride train of fools


This one is a victim a lost and broken child
Soon enough he′ll be a man to hate
And those that point the finger will also share the blame
No one leaves this train till judgement day
Ride, ride, ride train of fools
Ride, ride, ride train of fools
(Nye, nye, nye-nye-nye, nye, nye-nye, nye, nye)
(Nye, nye-nye, nye, nye... train)
(Nye, nye, nye-nye-nye, nye, nye-nye, nye, nye)
(Nye, nye-nye, nye, nye)
