Lyrics Frank Turner – The Slow Train
Text:
Miller’s Dale for Tideswell
Kirby Muxloe
Mow Cop and Scholar Green
No more will I go to Blandford Forum and Mortehoe
No churns, no porter, no cat on a seat
At Chorlton-cum-Hardy or Chester-le-Street
We won’t be meeting again
On the Slow Train
I’ll travel no more from Littleton Badsey to Openshaw
At Long Stanton I’ll stand well clear of the doors no more
No whitewashed pebbles, no Up and no Down
From Formby Four Crosses to Dunstable Town
I won’t be going again
On the Slow Train
On the Main Line and the Goods Siding
The grass grows high
At Dog Dyke, Tumby Woodside
And Trouble House Halt
The Sleepers sleep at Audlem and Ambergate
No passenger waits on Chittening platform or Cheslyn Hay
No one departs, no one arrives
From Selby to Goole, from St Erth to St Ives
They’ve all passed out of our lives
On the Slow Train, on the Slow Train
Cockermouth for Buttermere … on the Slow Train
Armley Moor Arram
Pye Hill and Somercotes … on the Slow Train
Windmill End
