The Warren Brothers - Nowhere Fast lyrics
I grew up here on Bourbon Street Playin' for the beer and tips Livin' by the Poncha Train Watchin' drunks and sailin' ships Now I'm sittin' on a midnight train Gonna bury momma on my birthday And never's gonna be too soon To see these streets of Vieux Carré Thirty years ago Momma was a pretty bride She took this train to New Orleans Made a mask for Mardi Gras and never took it off it seems Daddy drank away their honeymoon He never wore his wedding band They fought just like a hurricane But she fell in love with Dixieland CHORUS: Now I'm on a train to nowhere to find the future in my past I'm on a train to nowhere Feelin' like a no one How long will this last? Goin' nowhere fast Nine months later to the day she labored deep into the night I was the baby in her arms And she was weakened by the fight I grew up fast I grew up hard The alleyways were my backyard Momma sang at Pat O'Riley's And I sat in with the band on Fridays CHORUS Tonight we'll cross the Mason-Dixon line Finally takin' Momma home She will find a restin' place beneath the garden made of stone And I came here to find tomorrow Now I hear my station name If I can just forget my past maybe I can start again CHORUS: Now I'm on a train to nowhere to find the future in my past I'm on a train to nowhere but this trip will be my last Yeah if I can just get goin' and get myself on track off this train to nowhere It's goin' nowhere fast |
