Lyrics for Gravy Train by Mark Knopfler:
| | | Artist: | Mark Knopfler |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Gravy Train | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 58 | | | | Lyrics: | Well they fly past the ghettos and the factories
Ridin' on the gravy train
Leaving all the
places that they really ought to brave
Ridin' on the gravy train
Past the coal mines black
and scarred
Starter houses in the loading yard
On the gravy train, on the gravy
train
There's the lucky little mothers in their luxury cars
Ridin' on the gravy
train
Never thank each other or their lucky stars
Ridin' on the gravy train
That's worse
than ingratitude
Worse than a piss poor attitude
On the gravy train, gravy
train
Well the hanger-uppers and the hangers-on
Ridin' on the gravy train
Champagne
suppers with their daggers all drawn
Ridin' on the gravy train
Some act
tough, some act rude
Some bit of fluff complain about the food
You wanna see somebody
getting really rude
Get on the gravy train, gravy train
Well the golden goose is
clattering-a-down the track,
And they're gonna be ridin' in an old caboose
Coming
back
There's the soldiers of fashion on the hit parade
Ridin' on the gravy
train
Tongue lashing with the bitch brigade
Ridin' on the gravy train
Free loader licks
my boots
Tells me how he digs my suit
You got lucky son, don't get cute
Get on the gravy
