Rip Off Train Lyrics

Rip Off Train (Peter Tolson/Phil May)Young man made it to the citySearching through the wet streetsLooking for a rock 'n' roll bandCaught the rip off train to freedomA line of agents holding out their handWork your arses off foreverMidnight highways really bring you downBut you're there and you're workingSo don't complain so many miss the trainChorus Find a sound lay it downThey say it's undergroundStarts to sell do it wellBut you never can tellNow the young man's star shines brightlyBreaking hearts his records in the chartsFinds it hard to freak twice nightlyFalls in love the hardest fall of allChorusHe was just a lonely boyA very well known clownHe was just a lonely boy and downChorus--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
