cold light of morning, in the darkness i could see
was a face of an angel with the devil underneath
caught in the mystery or lost out at sea
there's no way it'll ever stop til you shake it outta me
it goes on like a railroad
i'd get off if i could
oh i try to give it up
but it tastes so good
down to the river, wash away my sin
from another night of chasing
and the pleasure that it brings
well i know you'll never need me
like i need you by my side
so forgive me if i'm preaching
but i'm running out of time
it goes on like a railroad
i'd get off if i could
oh i try to give it up
but it tastes so good
it goes on like a railroad
i'd get off if i could
oh i try to give it up
but it tastes so good
lord it tastes so good
