[Verse 1]
Every morning about half past eight
My mama wakes me, says "Don't be late"
Get to the office, trying to concentrate
[Refrain]
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill
[Verse 2]
So I stop one day to figure it out
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt
To sing the blues that I know about
[Refrain]
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill
[Bridge]
Minute after minute
Second after second
Hour after hour goes by
Working for a rich girl
Staying just a poor girl
Never stop to wonder why
[Verse 3]
So here I am in London town
A better scene I'm gonna be around
The kind of music that won't bring me down
[Refrain]
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill
[Verse 4]
Every morning 'bout half past eight
My mama wakes me says "Don't be late"
I get to the office, tryin' to concentrate
[Refrain]
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill
[Verse 5]
So I stop one day to figure it out
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt
To sing the blues that I know about
[Refrain]
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill
[Bridge]
Minute after minute
Second after second
Hour after hour goes by
Working for a rich girl
Staying just a poor girl
Never stop to wonder why
[Verse 6]
So here I am in London town
A better scene I'm gonna be around
The kind of music that won't bring me down
[Refrain]
Life is just a slow train
[Verse 7]
So, so, so here I am in London town
A better scene I'm gonna be around
The kind of music that won't bring me down
[Refrain]
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill
