The Weight of the World

Smoking down the track
 I'm a fireball mill
 Lord, coal's so black
 Can't even see the rail
 Followin' tongues of steel
 Behind, I drive the wheel
 Pulls the weight of the world
 Coming up the road
 Another rubber tire four
 They got us hooked on oil
 'Til the pipeline blow
 Such a shame to see
 Adding World War Three
 To the weight of the world
 Yeah, the weight of the world
 Up the top of a mountain
 Well I ne'er should
 Poisonous as the river
 With the devils's own sludge
 It's the American dream
 But if you live downstream
 Here comes the weight of the world
 Ton of plastic bottles
 Headed out to sea
 Bound to build an island
 Thanks to you and me
 Another man-made pearl
 For the junk we hurl
 Top the weight of the world
 Yeah, the weight of the world
 I got to feed the baby
 Recompense the rent
 For the way I think I?
 Where all the money went
 Well there's a piper to pay
 Can't get away
 From the weight of the world
 Look up in the sky
 Is it a bird or a plane?
 Taking love to delight?
 Drove us all insane
 Since it send us reeling
 The only thing with feeling
 Is the weight of the world
 First we get so numb
 Then we all succumb
 To the weight of the world
 Yeah the weight of the world
 (Let me get my guitar in there one more time)
