"Snake Drive" lyrics - NORTH MISSISSIPPI ALLSTARS

It's so hard to struggle, it's hard to survive
It's a struggle to stay alive
I keep fighting on 'til we arrive
I try to believe I will be received
Lord knows I'm ready to leave
Deliver me, I'm ready to leave
Please deliver me
How I wish my train would come;
Carry me back home
How I wish my train would come
As you can tell, I'm not from here
[I've] got to get the hell away from here
[I] bid you a fare thee well
Dark is the night, Cold is the ground
No one to call friend can be found
No one to lend a helping hand can be found
No one gives a damn
How I wish my train would come;
(And) Carry me back home
How I wish my train would come
The rain pouring down
From the heavens above;
Is cold as a mother's heart...
I talk about trouble, it's my only friend'
I can smell the trouble blowin' in the wind
Only thing I put my faith in...
I try to believe, It's hard to believe
There's a home out there for me
Please deliver me, I'm ready to leave
Please deliver me, I'm ready to leave
Please deliver me, I'm ready to leave
How I wish my train would come;
[And] Carry me back home
How I wish my train would come. (please deliver me)
And carry me back home
How I wish my train would come. (I'm ready to leave)
And carry me, back, home
How I wish my train would come (please deliver me)
And carry me back home
How I wish my train would come (I'm ready to leave)
And carry me back home
How I wish my train would come. (please deliver me)
And take me back home...
