Rusty Rain Railroad

From the side of a freight car, 
he hangs his indigo heart on the rails. 
As the metal wheels harmonize with the rain.
Amidst the rust, hustle, and thunder
The message is clear..." Jesus saves-Jesus saves".
Climb aboard the "faith" train before it's too late.

It's a take care of number one world.
Everyone else be damned.
Live for the moment, trash away the soul.
There's no God of tomorrow
Flesh rules the day.
