Text: Iron & Wine. The Rooster Moans.

Crack of dawn, the rooster moans

Wake up boy, you're far from home

Serpentine, the tracks in flames

Longest path the devil laid

Led you straight aboard this rusty train



Lift your head because you can't sleep

Bite your lip because you can't eat

Darkest den the devil made

Jesus weeps but he's been paid

Not to ride inside this rusty train



Buzzard's breath, the rooster moans

Stow it boy, you're far from home

Stow your sorrow, stow your fear

What did you do to end up here?

End up on the devil's rusty train
