Official Lyrics:

He was born in West Virginia
With a mountain in his yard
Had a dream and then he followed it away

Ran to Tennessee carried a guitar in his hands
Signed a record deal and thought he had it made
Cut an album on the road and then they ran it up the charts
Called him a renegade and made him grow a beard
Went on an arena tour and did all the late night TV
Got nominated for New Artist of the Year

He took the fast track
To the tip top
He took the fast track
To the tip top
He took the fast track
To the tip top
Now he’s looking for a slow train down

Smiling for the cameras flashing on his pearly whites
Oh, the lovely ladies thought he was the best
They waited in a line
Oh yeah he had them taking turns
He was relishing the taste of his success

Flew on a private jet
He had a brand new XL2
Rode in limousines instead of yellow cabs
He never gave a second thought to how much everything would cost
The label said they’d put it on his tab

He took the fast track
To the tip top
He took the fast track
To the tip top
He took the fast track
To the tip top
Now he’s looking for a slow train down

When the single ran its course
The label pulled the plug
All the smoke and mirrors went away
Now he’s just another sucker out there looking for a gig
Drinking in a bar down on Broadway

Now he’s back in West Virginia
With a mountain in his yard
Wondering how it all could go so wrong
He’s almost out of money
And his ego’s getting bruised
And he thinks “Maybe I should just try writing songs”

Now there’s an idea

He took the fast track
To the tip top
He took the fast track
To the tip top
He took the fast track
To the tip top
Now he’s looking for a slow train down

Yeah he’s looking for a slow train down
Yeah he’s looking for a slow train down
Yeah he’s looking for a slow train down
Slow train
