Southbound Train Lyrics - Crosby & Nash

Liberty, laughing and shaking your head 

Can you carry the torch that'll bring home the dead? 

To the land of their fathers whose lives you have led 

To the station at the edge of the town 

On the southbound train going down 

Equality, quietly facing the fist 

Are you angry and tired that your point has been missed? 

Will you go in the backroom and study the list 

Of the gamblers using the phone 

On the southbound train going down 

Fraternity, failing to fight back the tears 

Does it take an eternity breaking all the fears? 

And what will the passenger do when he hears 

That he's already paid for the crown 

On the southbound train going down
