Hellbound Train

My daddy told me when I was just a kid
 
 Son, do like I tell you, don't do like I did
 I know you'll never listen, but I'll give it to you straight
 You'll never know what hit you 'til it's way too late
 I know it calls to you so sweetly
 But, oh, it'll mess you up completely
 Cry if you want to, but you'll cry in vain
 You'll never get to Heaven on a Hell bound train
 Never get to Heaven on a Hell bound train
 I met a girl in Memphis, we were both just 21
 
 Hit the road together, looking for some fun
 
 Aces in Atlanta won me a 44
 I got drunk in Florida and tried to rob a liquor store
 I know it calls to you so sweetly
 But, oh, it'll mess you up completely
 Cry if you want to, but you'll cry in vain
 You'll never get to Heaven on a Hell bound train
 Never get to Heaven on a Hell bound train

 When they finally let me out of FSP

 She was living in Ocala with a son I'd never seen
 We sat a while and didn't speak and then I told him, son
 
 You do like I tell you, don't do like I done
 I know it calls to you so sweetly
 But, oh, it'll mess you up completely
 Cry if you want to, but you'll cry in vain
 You'll never get to Heaven on a Hell bound train
 Never get to Heaven on a Hell bound train
 No, you'll never to Heaven on a Hell bound train
