Deep Purple Slow Train Lyrics

How can you live in such a state?
Your mind is empty and you're full of hate
The things you say and the things you do
Mark you down as a helpless fool.

I know, I know, I know, I know
It's gonna be all right through the night
Tomorrow comes and you're full of shame
Oh, baby!!! You play the crying game.

Ah!!! ah!!!
Ah!!! ah!!!

Gonna be a long time baby
Before we get it sorted out all right
I'll drag you off to Utopia, baby
We'll end up heading south.

I need, I need, I need to know
If you're gonna do me right
If you do the things I ask of you
I'll tell the world tonight.

He, he, he, he, he...
All right.

You do me right, you do me wrong
Tell me, where do I belong?
You do me up, you do me down
I accept it all without a frown.

You live like a woman in a fantasy
Ha ha I admire you from my tree
You drain my life and you drain my brain
I end up running back again.

I love, I love, I love the funny ways
Oh!!! you throw me in a daze
If you ever left me woman
I'd destroy myself, sure as hell.

Ah!!! ah!!!
Ah!!! ah!!!

We're gonna ride a slow train baby
And take all the whistle stops
Oh, yes!!! we are
We'll pull down the blinds while the carriage grinds
And the engine grunts and pops
Well!!! there's a city,
Jamie cryin' 'bout the fussin' goin' on
So I'll burn her Times to ash
Well!!! there's a lot to live
But there's a lot to give
Ready!!!!
Steady!!!
Smash!!!

Alright!!!
Yeah!!!
Uh!!!
Mmm!!!

You just got to be out of your head
When you say you're good
Looking from bottom to top
Well!!! I'll be waiting,
To give her the rent
When you pass 'til
You say you want a sock hop
Well!!! there's a nightmare
Howling like there's something going on
And it's going to aim the pain
Oh!!! just like me he fell in love
Ah, now!!! he feels the pain.

Ah!!! ah!!!
Ah!!! ah!!!

Gonna ride a slow train baby
And take all the whistle stops
Oh, yes!!! we are
We'll pull down the blinds
While the carriage grinds
Engine grunts and pops
Well!!! there's a city, Jamie cryin'
'Bout the fussin' goin' on
So I'll burn her Times to ash
And there's a lot to live
And there's a lot to give
Ready!!!
Steady!!!
Smash!!!!
