"THE SPANISH TRAIN"
"Theres a Spanish train that runs between Quadalcavir and old Seville,
In the dead of night the whistle blows and people hear,
She`s running still,
Then they hush their children back to sleep,
Lock the doors upstairs they creep for it is said,
The souls of the dead, fill that train,
10,000 deep,
Well a railway man lay dying with his people by his side,
His family they were crying knelt in prayer before he died,
But above his head awaiting for the dead was the devil with a twinkle in his eye,
Well God`s not around and look at what I found,
This ones mine!
Just then the Lord himself appeared in a blinding flash of light,
And shouted at the devil " Get thee hence to endless night "
Then the devil just grinned and said maybe Ive sinned,
But theres no need to push me around,
I got in first so you can do your worst, Hes going underground,
But I think Ill give you one more chance said the devil with a smile,
So throw away that stupid lance, its really not your style,
Joker is the name and poker is the game we`ll play right here on this bed,
And then we`ll play for the biggest stakes yet,
The souls of the dead!
And I cried "Look out Lord hes gonna win
The sun is down and the night is closin` in,
This train is dead on time, many souls are on the line,
Oh Lord dont let him win!
Well that Spanish train still runs they say, between, Quadalcavir and old Seville,
And at dead of night the whistle blows and people fear,
Shes runnin` still.
