No Train to Stockholm lyrics

One night Johnny sang the truth to me

On a northbound train from Nashville Tennessee

Taught me all the letters in a lam

Sang "Freedom is where you think it is

But there ain't no train to Stockholm"

Received your invitation to the war

I sent it back so please don't send no more

I'd rather rot in some jail all alone

Singin' "Freedom is where you think it is

But there ain't no train to Stockholm"

If I have to ride this train a hundred years

And all I have to drink is my own tears

I'll not kill for you or on my own

Singin' "Freedom is where you think it is

But there ain't no train to Stockholm"

Governments and politicians too

There's lots of people feel the way we do

A hundred million of us can't be wrong

Singin' "Freedom is where you think it is

But there ain't no train to Stockholm"
