Tosh, Peter - Stop That Train Lyrics






Stop that train I'm leaving
Stop that train I'm leaving
Stop that train I'm leaving
It won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
I said it won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong

All my good life I've been a lonely man
Teaching the people who don't overstan'
And even though I've tried my bes'
I still don't find no happiness

Stop that train I'm leaving
Stop that train I'm leaving
Stop that train I'm leaving
It won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
Said it won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong

Some goin' east
Some goin' west
Some step aside to try their best
Some livin' big
But the most livin' small
They just can't even find
No food at all

Stop that train I'm leaving
Stop that train I'm leaving
Stop that train I'm leaving
It won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
Said it won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong

Stop that train I'm leaving...

    For all who are guessing and or pontificating... the train is the I'm dead train... It's super musically historic. The blues use the reference and sound.
    Mr. Peter " Macintosh " Tosh uses it often as well. He was quite the passionate genius. A true polymath. Publically dentify his murderers already. "Stand Firm". xoxo

    noooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

  45. R.... L....

    To me in my own way its Stop that train ima leaving, outta babylon! some gone east some gone west,

  46. R.... L....

    Yes the other one is the one I have on my ipod lol. I like it more than this one too. I wish they would remaster the audio though. Still amazing as it is but such great music deserves the best audio and god knows we're not getting anything of this quality today.

  47. l.... ....

    yes i am in total agreement with you.This song has about two meanings.Do you know the next version?sound much better than this one.

  48. T.... W....

    I think its about getting out of a 'shituation' as Peter would call it.

  49. R.... L....

    I think the train is a metaphor for life so this song may well be about someone who wanted to kill themselves. Can't take it anymore: "Won't be too long, whether right or wrong". Tosh is saying perhaps how we are all different and all have to find our own purpose. Some going east, some going west, some stand aside to do their best.

    What are your thoughts? Agree? Disagree? I am curious to know how you guys interpret it. One love.

    R.... L....

    Still tryin to overstand it myself i

  50. R.... ....

    I like the roots version of "Catch a fire" better since it sounds so raw. Not that this version isn't any good but my taste is telling me that the "Catch a fire" version is better.

  51. l.... k....

    beautiful, and great video, thanks for posting!!

  52. c.... b....

    tosh wrote this ok,do your home work and you will see Bob did over most of the original wailers tunes.peter will always be envied and hated but to i he was and still is the best.

  53. R.... ....

    They dont make them amymore like they used to make them...music...

  54. C.... D....

    Peter Tosh at his best, people forget Marley was a guitarist when Bunny Wailer and peter decided to quit xx

  55. P.... ....

    Ummm.. what?? You just sounded really dumb. Read both my comments again you fool. Ofc I know this is Tosh, I said I have a version where Bob does the vocals. Jeez, get your shit together or mind your own damn business.

  56. P.... ....

    That's not the complete truth. I know what you are thinking of, but believe me I have an album with stop that train and it's BOB not Tosh singing, trust me I know the difference (not that it's hard to tell them apart;)

  57. J.... E....

    Yes, but Tosh sang in both versions.

  58. P.... ....

    This is good, I love Tosh but Bobs version of this one is better

  59. a.... j....

    @ruby2052 Stop the hate!!! :\

  60. A.... ....

    Stop that train I'm leaving...
    It won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
    I said it won't be too long whether I'm right or wrong
    All my life I've been a lonely man
    Teaching the people who don't understand
    And even though I've tried my best
    I still don't find no happiness, no happiness :(
    Some going east
    Some going west
    Some step aside to try their best
    Some living big
    But the most living small
    They just can't even find
    No food at all
    Stop that train I'm leaving

  61. c.... ....
