[Verse 1]
I'm movin' on to the black train
The night, it beats me down
I'm moving on the black train
And I breathe a soundless sound

[Chorus]
Riding on the black train
Riding on the black train

[Verse 2]
Every blood in my body moves with the train
And some of it's on the floor
I'm slippin' out to any place
Although I know I've been there before

[Chorus]
Riding on the black train
Riding on the black train

[Verse 3]
Torn up on the black train
Torn from my southern home
Left a n***a lying dead by the river
I left the Will-O-Wisp to roam
[Chorus]
Riding on the black train
Riding on the black train

[Bridge]
Ride, ride
And I can't get better, I can't get better

[Chorus]
Riding on the black train
Riding on the black train

[Verse 4]
I'm heat on the black train
And I'm lighting up the night
With everything I've had and everything I've done
I still can't be satisfied

[Chorus]
I'm riding on the black train
I'm riding on the black train
