Текст песни: Ghost Train + перевод

the only train out running after midnight

is this ghost train on some cross-country line

its load is light tho it’s carrying a lot of lonely shadows

that its passengers in the past have left behind

and it keeps on rolling down thru the lowlands

as it brings to you tomorrow morning’s mail

and the ghost of the old west wind hangs over the engine

and the ghost of the lowland fog hangs over the rails

and the ghost of the cigarette smoke hangs over the snack bar car that’s closed

and the ghost of all those words hangs over the mail

it’s dark outside, visibility’s almost zero

as time and this train run their race

and all you see is your reflection in the window

as the lights of a distant town pass thru your face

and there’s lots of time to memorize the movies

and the ghosts of all the cities you’ve been thru

it was Christmas all year round down in Geneva

and I made friends with the ghost of Amsterdam

and the ghost of Munich reminded me of my grandpa

and in Paris I did a dance with the ghost of Uncle Sam

Engineer don’t show me no more mail stop stations

don’t you think we seen enough of those?

I’ll make you up a song if you’ll only make this train go faster

I’ll dedicate it to you, good god, and the holy ghost

I got my fingers tapping time to the clicking of the wheels on the track

as I harmonize with the wind blowing by outside

and the ghost of the Grateful Dead hangs over the music

and the ghost of Jimi Hendrix plays along

and the ghost of Otis Redding helps me sing it

and the ghost of Mr. Dylan hangs over the song

the conductor passes by with his timetable

he reads it like you’d read a shopping list

he says you’re almost home, then he punches your ticket

and if it isn’t on this train it doesn’t exist

then you pass that row of factories with their lights still burning bright

as the train slows down to cross over the bridge

where the ghost of James Dean hangs over the river

and the ghost of Marilyn Monroe hangs over the moon

and the ghost of you is running out to meet me

and ghost of me is coming home soon

yes, the ghost of you is hanging over my shoulder

I’ve been thinking of you a lot these last few miles

and the ghost of me is just hanging on these guitar strings

he’s been singing me a song, he’s been making me smile
