Text: Indigo Girls. 1200 Curfews. This Train Revised.
It's a fish white belly
A lump in the throat
Razor on the wire
Skin and bone
Piss and blood
In a railroad car, 100 people
Gypsies queers
And David's Star
This train is bound for glory
This train is bound for glory
This train is bound for glory
(This train)
Measure the bones
Count the face
Pull out the teeth
Do you belong
To the human race
Doctor doctor are you unkind?
Do you shock the monkeys?
Cover our eyes with clear blue skies
This train is bound for glory
This train is bound for glory
This train is bound for glory now
This train
Here is a dancer
Who has no legs
Here is a healer
(Here is a teacher)
Who has no face
(Who has no hands)
Here is a runner
(Who has no feet)
Here is a thinker
(Here is a builder)
Who has no head
(Who has no back)
Here is a writer
(Who has no voice)
These are the questions
(These are the answers)
Stacked like wood
This train is bound for glory
This train is bound for glory
This train is bound for glory now
This train
This train is bound for glory

This train is bound for glory
(This train gonna carry my father)
This train is bound for glory now

This train gonna carry my sister

This train gonna carry my sister

This train is
This train is bound for glory
These are the questions
Stacked like wood
These are the answers
Here is potential gone for good
A lump in the throat
Razor on the wire
Skin and bone
Piss and blood
In a railroad car, 100 people
