Johnny Thunders

Subway Train

I can't ever understand

Why my life's been cursed, poisoned, condemned

When I been trying every night to hold you near me

But I'm telling you, it ain't easy

Ever since I been riding

Right on the subway train

You can hear the whistle blowing

You might think I'm going insane

And now your friends

They're filling up my car

But you're so busy reading Suzy says

You can't look now

You didn't see your lovers

They're all dressed in rags

You know you hid as pushing up posies

Trying to get you fed

We was all riding

Right on the subway train

And you can hear the captain shouting

He thinks I've gone insane

Cause I keep riding

Keep on riding

Cause I keep on riding, riding, riding

Keep on riding

You stop and you stare

As I'm leaving my favorite place

We have no regards

You can't find a trace

You gotta get on back to daddy

That's all it's gonna be

He got the poison black arts of the pimps

But don't you stop and stare

I seen them traveling

Right on the subway train

You can hear the captain shouting

He thinks we've all gone insane

Cause we keep on riding, riding, riding, riding

Cause we keep riding, riding, riding

Keep on riding

I think I see the train

I see you got open track
