lyrics

Richmond, VA, 1925
Tunnel collapsed, but he walked out alive
Fled toward the James, hid in a grave
Railroad said “sorry, he could not be saved”

Ain’t no employers dying for me
Ain’t going down like Engine 143
Baby, if this train buries me down
Coming back as a vampire, gonna haunt this whole town

Mama said son, why do you roam
Building those tunnels, family at home
Lungs turning black, smoke in your face
Die in the tunnels, you just get replaced

Ooh, when that tunnel came down
Ooh, when that tunnel came down
No survivors were found
They’re just bodies in the ground

Put on your boots, life on the line
Stick out your neck for the boss man’s dime
Suck out your blood, drain out your life
Orphan your children, widow your wife

Richmond, VA, 1925
Tunnel collapsed, did he walk out alive?
Mausoleum door fell off its hinge
Coming back to Richmond to take his revenge
