Just a slide tune. More about the sound of the National than the vocals.

A story about life as it relates to a train.

An explanation of why I don't work for a living.

Peak oil is coming. In the U.S., we depend too much on our cars.

There's always a chance for luck... or not.

Trying to find the meaning of life on the highway.

Once again... a song about me being fed up.

Scrapin' metal across metal. I love train wrecks.

Written in memory of a friend for whom nothing in the world could change his fate.

Some folks feel lonely... but there's an alternative.

It's all about trains.

Sometimes I just get fed up, and it starts showing.

Day-by-day, I find it harder to forgive the busboy who killed the metal dobro I used when I recorded this one. Lawdy, I miss that guitar!

Sometimes in the middle of a gig I like to jam with myself.

A chant about traveling through life, by not missing the train.

A roots, semi chant.
