Poor Man's Train Songtext

von Gerry Wall

If the mountain won't come to you
Get on a poor man's train
If the mountain won't come to you
Get aboard Mohamed's train
What one man give up on
Another man will gain.

Don't ask for the doctor
If your health has gone astray
Don't ask for the doctor
You'd be better off to pray
The doctor likes the money
It changes owners every day

I got the last to know, the last to know eyes
I got the last to know, the last to know eyes
When I reach for the prize
- Another disguise.

If you want to take the measure
Know what you must scale
If you want to take the measure
Know what you must scale
But if you want to know the reason
Word is it's not for sale.

If you want to cross the river
You must leave your bags behind
To dance upon the water
You must leave your bags behind
If you want to see the promised land
You must not be blind.
