Loaded
like a freight train
Flyin'
like an aeroplane
Feelin'
like a space brain
One
more time tonight
Well,
I'm a west coast struttin'
One
bad mother
Got a
rattlesnake suitcase
Under
my arm
Said
I'm a mean machine
Been
drinkin' gasoline
And,
honey, you can make my motor hum
I got
one chance left
In a
nine live cat
I got
a dog eat dog sly smile
I got
a Molotov cocktail
With
a match to go
I
smoke my cigarette with style
An I
can tell you, honey
You
can take my money tonight
Wake
up late
Honey
put on your clothes
Take
your credit card
To
the liquor store
That's
one for you and
Two
for me by tonight
I'll
be loaded like a freight train
Flyin'
like an aeroplane
Feelin'
like a space brain
One
more time tonight
I'm
on the nightrain
Bottoms
up
I'm
on the nightrain
Fill
my cup
I'm
on the nightrain
Ready
to crash and burn
I
never learn
I'm
on the nightrain
I
love that stuff
I'm
on the nightrain
I can
never get enough
I'm
on the nightrain
Never
to return, no
Loaded
like a freight train
Flyin'
like an aeroplane
Speedin'
like a space brain
One
more time tonight
I'm
on the nightrain
An
I'm lookin' for some
I'm
on the nightrain
So's
I can leave this slum
I'm
on the nightrain
And
I'm ready to crash an' burn
Nightrain
Bottoms
up
I'm
on the nightrain
Fill
my cup
I'm
on the nightrain
I'm
on the nightrain
Love
that stuff
I'm
on the nightrain
An I
can never get enough
Ridin'
the nightrain
I
guess, I
I
guess, I guess, I guess
I
never learn
On
the nightrain
Float
me home
Oohh,
I'm on the nightrain
Ridin'
the nightrain
Never
to return
Nightrain
