Adam Calhoun - Old Train Lyrics
There's a train on the mountain
Burnin' coal, runnin' fast
'Round the way I can hear it
As it's comin' on down the tracks
It's old burnin' strong, keeps movin' on
The train is all black, like the man from the past
The ghost of old Johnny Cash
Young man lookin' at his young hands
But the hands of time move faster than he understands
That time was long ago, many winds down the road
The railroad couldn't hold, ties that so many broke
Young man shovels all the coal in the stove
And the leaves change colors when the breath in the smoke
And the steel cuts through the prairies and the stones
The train shakes the ground you can hear it from afar
The coal burns bright, you can see it like the stars
The moonlight shines like the headlights from cars
It howls out at night, like the man out at bars
Now these old timers pass, hard as coal it's all black
Like the man Johnny Cash, put his soul in these tracks
And it rolls off the tracks, whistle blow when it pass
Can't control it so fast, he just hopes he don't crash
There's a train on the mountain
Burnin' coal, runnin' fast
'Round the way I can hear it
As it's comin' on down the tracks
It's old burnin' strong, keeps movin' on
It shakes the leaves and the grass (Ha ha)
The train is all black, like the man from the past
The ghost of old Johnny Cash (Struggle)
Certain prayers were never spoken, I was too ashamed to ever ask him
Started baskin' [?] while my love was keep on passin'
I don't have enough cash to get 'em out of their bind
Try to bring a little light to lead 'em out of the blind
Hard to find peace when boys all you've ever known
Hard to find a trains path when these tracks are overgrown
And they're home to the snakes, layin, lookin' for their opportunity
To uproot every seed that I had sewn
They throw in the key and strip his kids from their only home
Lonely and alone, behind walls I tore down every stone
That I had ever hid behind, rocky path like Stallone
The underdog will get the [?]
They climb and claim it's the time
Diggin', grindin' up the mountain
Flag flies this is mine
Won't be dead get in line, your side of the fence has been defined
At the cross roads where life and death are intertwined
Singin' to the man in black, so long my clemintine
There's a train on the mountain
Burnin' coal, runnin' fast
'Round the way I can hear it
As it's comin' on down the tracks
It's old burnin' strong, keeps movin' on
It shakes the leaves and the grass
The train is all black, like the man from the past
The ghost of old Johnny Cash

The sound clip of the train is engine number 90 at the Strasburg Railroad in Pennsylvania. Don’t ask me how I know that...
Seth Simmons how do you know that
Andrew Goodreau he said don’t ask🔪
I came to the comments to see if anyone had pointed this fact out.
That doesn’t sound like Adam on the chorus. Who is that?
Tay’s Gaming that’s him
Lilly Alexandra I’m puzzled it really doesn’t sound like him 😂
Yous a badass motherfu@ker Calhoun
Hearing you with struggle made me realize something. You gotta hit up Jelly brother.
He should feature on the next Waylon and Willie. Wouldnt mind more collaboration with them and upchurch either. Always fire.
I agree
I agree jelly got some flows bro
Damn, he made a song with Struggle Jennings who's afilliated with Yelawolf... Keep going Adam!
Cosmin Dragos affiliated😂😂😂😂😂 I think you need a new term. Affiliated isn't even close to what that whole crew is👌💯
@ROACH-VIXXCREW SYLFT Well, call it crew then, or second family
It's called Slumerican!!! Is the the bond Struggle has with Yela. 💯
You people have no idea what's about to happen. Yelawolf has already signed Bubba Sparks, Struggle and Jelly. Slumerican records is about to blow up, add in Adam and Upchurch as the kings of hick hop....wooo boy! these boys are taking the fuck over. watch out.
Brother love the music keep it up
Love it Adam always Killin it!!!
