[00:00.00] 作词 : DeBurgh
[00:27.18]There's a Spanish train that runs between
[00:30.66]Guadalquivir and old Seville,
[00:33.36]And at dead of night the whistle blows,
[00:35.64]And people hear she's running still...
[00:40.95]And then they hush their children back to sleep,
[00:43.98]Lock the doors, upstairs they creep,
[00:46.68]For it is said that the souls of the dead
[00:49.14]Fill that train ten thousand deep!!
[00:54.48]Well a railwayman lay dying with his people by his side,
[01:00.21]His family were crying, knelt in prayer before he died,
[01:05.64]But above his head just a-waiting for the dead,
[01:08.25]Was the Devil with a twinkle in his eye,
[01:09.99]"Well God's not around and look what I've found, this one's mine!!"
[01:17.34]Just then the Lord himself appeared in a blinding flash of light,
[01:22.68]And shouted at the devil, "Get thee hence to endless night!!"
[01:27.96]But the Devil just grinned and said "I may have sinned,
[01:30.54]But there's no need to push me around,
[01:33.18]I got him first so you can do your worst,
[01:36.30]He's going underground!!"
[01:38.07]"But I think I'll give you one more chance"
[01:42.33]Said the Devil with a smile,
[01:44.82]"So throw away that stupid lance,
[01:47.52]It's really not your style",
[01:49.44]"Joker is the name, Poker is the game,
[01:52.98]We'll play right here on this bed,
[01:55.47]And then we'll bet for the biggest stakes yet,
[01:58.89]The souls of the dead!!"
[02:04.14]And I said "Look out, Lord, he's going to win,
[02:09.90]The sun is down and the night is riding in,
[02:14.94]That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line,
[02:20.22]Oh Lord, he's going to win!.."
[02:27.93]Well the railwayman he cut the cards
[02:30.18]and he dealt them each a hand of five
[02:33.00]And for the Lord he was praying hard
[02:35.34]Or that train he'd have to drive...
[02:37.95]Well the Devil he had three aces and a king,
[02:40.53]And the Lord, he was running for a straight,
[02:42.99]He had the queen and the knave and the nine and ten of spades,
[02:46.23]All he needed was the eight...
[02:49.50]And then the Lord he called for one more card,
[02:51.99]But he drew the diamond eight,
[02:54.51]And the Devil said to the son of God,
[02:56.31]"I believe you've got it straight,
[02:59.64]So deal me one for the time has come
[03:01.92]To see who'll be the king of this place,
[03:04.95]But as he spoke, from beneath his cloak,
[03:07.89]He slipped another ace...
[03:11.10]Ten thousand souls was the opening bid,
[03:13.80]And it soon went up to fifty-nine,
[03:16.17]But the Lord didn't see what the Devil did,
[03:18.45]and he said "that suits me fine",
[03:20.40]"I'll raise you high to hundred and five,
[03:23.76]And forever put an end to your sin",
[03:26.28]But the Devil let out a mighty shout, "My hand wins!!"
[03:34.86]And I said "Lord, oh Lord, you let him win,
[03:40.44]The sun is down and the night is riding in,
[03:45.48]That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line,
[03:49.77]Oh Lord, don't let him win...
[03:53.28]"Well that Spanish train still runs between,
[04:02.43]Guadalquivir and old Seville,
[04:04.86]And at dead of night the whistle blows,
[04:06.93]And people fear she's running still...
[04:12.57]And far away in some recess
[04:14.85]The Lord and the Devil are now playing chess,
[04:17.55]The Devil still cheats and wins more souls,
[04:20.43]And as for the Lord, well, he's just doing his best...
[04:29.40]And I said "Lord, oh Lord, you've got to win,
[04:35.16]The Sun is down and the night is riding in,
[04:40.11]That train is still on time,
[04:42.36]Oh my soul is on the line,
[04:45.36]Oh Lord, you've got to win..."
