Ridin That Long Black Train

“Ridin’ That Long Black Train”
(Parody-style, dramatic country ballad)
⸻
[Verse 1]
Kurt packed his bags at the break of dawn,
Said goodbye to the crew and was suddenly gone.
Heard rumors floatin’ ‘bout a train so bold,
Stretchin’ through the desert, burnin’ hot and cold.
⸻
[Verse 2]
They say it don’t stop, it don’t slow down,
Rolls through the night with a thunderin’ sound.
Kurt’s eyes lit up like a neon sign—
Said, “That’s the ride I’ve been waitin’ to find.”
⸻
[Chorus]
He’s ridin’ that long black train,
Through fire and fog, through joy and pain.
Got no ticket, just soul and flame,
Kurt’s out chasin’ that long black train.
⸻
[Verse 3]
The cow crew warned him, said “It’s too much steam,”
But Kurt’s been dreamin’ that midnight dream.
He don’t want local, he don’t want plain—
He wants the power of that long black train.
⸻
[Bridge]
Some say it’s freedom, some say it’s doom,
Some say you vanish when it leaves the room.
But Kurt just grinned, boots on the rail,
Yelled, “If it’s glory or ruin—I’ll ride without fail!”
⸻
[Final Chorus]
He’s ridin’ that long black train,
No lookin’ back, no shame, no name.
Thunder in his chest, wild and untamed—
Kurt’s gone deep on that long black train.
