lirik lagu warren brothers - nowhere fast
i grew up here on bourbon street
playin’ for the beer and tips
livin’ by the poncha train
watchin’ drunks and sailin’ ships
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 carre
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
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
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
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
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
goin’ nowhere fast
goin’ nowhere fast
