Religion On The Rails (I Saw You There)
« back
I saw the weather change
Saw the earth turn from grey to rain
Brought the piper his marmalade
And he handed me some yarn

We caught out on a grainer
That was pickin' up speed heading west
Threw our bags into the rabbit holes
As we laid our heads to rest

And I saw you there
Yes I saw you there

For everyman there's a vacancy
For everything we wickedly implore
Oh lord keep it far from me
Don't want nothing to do with before

I guessed we were on the Illinois central line
Headed on for lowa coal
Hadn't been clean in over two months time
But dry was all that the preacher sold

And I saw you there
Yes I saw you there
    Chorus:
    I pray to the gods for thunder
    But I pray to the clouds for rain
    And if the river she take me under
    Let her bring me back up again


Cause I wasn't where you were tonight
But I could tell you were listening in
Oh I wasn't where you were tonight
But I could tell you were listening in

I saw you there
Yes I saw you there

    Chorus:
    I pray to the gods for thunder
    But I pray to the clouds for rain
    And if the river she take me under
    Let her bring me back up again

Oh we are only doing the best we can
Oh I am doing the best I can

I wasn't where you were tonight
ut I could tell you were listening in
Oh I wasn't where you were tonight
But I could tell you were listening in
