Song Information:

Good question: What's it about?

Who knows. I've been listening to the Old Crow Medicine Show a lot having seen them last week.

The chorus line is a quip in Bo Diddley's version of Down Home Special (aka I'm going Home).

The rest is just pieces of the world gathering together in the whirlpool of my life. There's a story to it but it's kind of spattered on the wall, and there's pieces missing. Catchy though ";~)

Song Lyrics:

This Train goes to Tuscaloosa, baby
we ain't getting off (x2)
We're gonna ride this train
right down the drain
We're gonna ride 'til the mailman comes

Red moon rising
On the horizon
Looking like a PRIZE in
some shooting gallery
looking like a whale tail
diving away
diving in
the deep blue sea

This Train goes to Tuscaloosa, baby
we ain't getting off (x2)
We're gonna ride this train
right down the drain
We're gonna ride 'til the mailman comes

This Train goes to Tuscaloosa
This Train goes to Tuscaloosa
This Train goes to Tuscaloosa
we ain't getting off

Fiery omens
Black cats and showmen
taking you home in
a blacked out Cadillac
Taking you back where
you know the form and
the path cuts across the tracks

This Train goes to Tuscaloosa, baby
we ain't getting off (x2)
We're gonna ride this train
right down the drain
We're gonna ride 'til the mailman comes
