Avry Truex - Astral Plane Travelin' Train Lyrics

I figured I'll hop me another damn train
I'm getting mighty angry with this day and this age
Trying to find me a train that'll carry my soul away
So I'm heading up North 'long these old paper towns
Been biding my time with these tracks on the ground
Too damn high off my pipe to ever come down
My doggie and I are getting deep into a talk
With a Yote, and a Coon, and some dreary Nighthawk
Passing 'round our tales of before we found these tracks
I been running astray since this world turned gray
Couldn't find no way to sit around and stay
So I've hopped me an astral plane traveling train
Hope the open tracks ahead carry my soul away
So I've hopped me an astral plane traveling train
The Yote he howled transcendent tunes
Deep into the starry night
Sitting on back I listened and I hit my pipe
Pleased to meet you said the ol' Raccoon
I've been riding this line since before my mind
Existed in this realm of space and time
The tracks laid before they don't exist no more
They're laid as we roll along
And the only place we belong is moving on
The Nighthawk awoke from his drunken sleep
Smiled and spoke"Now riding free ain't cheap
Cuz you never know where these tracks are gonna lead"
But may the open tracks ahead carry your soul away
So welcome aboard the astral plane traveling train
The ol' ring-tail sure loved them rails
Like the Nighthawk loved his bottle
And the Engineer, his lead hand, and his throttle
No, that train don't slow it only speeds up
So you better jump now if you're coming along
It's a long and lovely ride, down the line
As the sun starts setting the Yote rests his head
On a pile of songs from yesterday and tomorrow
Tunes of love and pain and beautiful sorrow
My doggie and I, we settle in for the night
As we usher in the celestial ride
Aboard the trans-dimensional train through space and time
Hope the open tracks ahead carry our souls away
So we doze to sleep on the astral plane traveling train
