Nowhere Fast -The Warren Brothers[00:00:00]
I grew up here on Bourbon Street[00:00:01]
Playin' for the beer and tips[00:00:03]
Livin' by the Poncha Train[00:00:05]
Watchin' drunks and sailin' ships[00:00:07]
Now I'm sittin' on a midnight train[00:00:09]
Gonna bury momma on my birthday[00:00:12]
And never's gonna be too soon[00:00:14]
To see these streets[00:00:17]
Of Vieux Carré[00:00:19]
Thirty years ago[00:00:22]
Momma was a pretty bride[00:00:24]
She took this train to New Orleans[00:00:26]
Made a mask for Mardi Gras[00:00:28]
And never took it off it seems[00:00:30]
Daddy drank away their honeymoon[00:00:33]
He never wore his wedding band[00:00:35]
They fought just like a hurricane[00:00:38]
But she fell in love with Dixieland[00:00:40]
Now I'm on a train to nowhere[00:00:46]
To find the future in my past[00:00:50]
I'm on a train to nowhere[00:00:56]
Feelin' like a no one[00:00:58]
How long will this last [00:01:00]
Goin' nowhere fast[00:01:05]
Nine months later to the day[00:01:11]
She labored deep into the night[00:01:14]
I was the baby in her arms[00:01:16]
And she was weakened by the fight[00:01:18]
I grew up fast I grew up hard[00:01:21]
The alleyways were my backyard[00:01:23]
Momma sang at Pat O'Riley's[00:01:25]
And I sat in with the band on Fridays[00:01:28]
Now I'm on a train to nowhere[00:01:33]
To find the future in my past[00:01:37]
I'm on a train to nowhere[00:01:43]
Feelin' like a no one[00:01:46]
How long will this last [00:01:48]
Goin' nowhere fast[00:01:53]
Tonight we'll cross the[00:02:17]
Mason-Dixon line[00:02:19]
Finally takin' Momma home[00:02:21]
She will find a restin' place[00:02:23]
Beneath the garden made of stone[00:02:26]
And I came here to find tomorrow[00:02:28]
Now I hear my station name[00:02:30]
If I can just forget my past[00:02:33]
Maybe I can start again[00:02:35]
Now I'm on a train to nowhere[00:02:41]
To find the future in my past[00:02:44]
I'm on a train to nowhere[00:02:51]
But this trip will be my last[00:02:55]
Yeah if I can just get goin'[00:03:00]
And get myself on track[00:03:05]
Off this train to nowhere[00:03:10]
It's goin' nowhere fast[00:03:15]
