    Lyrics
    The Black Dog train broke down in Reflections, Missouri
    Only bothering those who were in a hurry
    For there were those that didnt mind
    They were just enjoying the ride

    When the captain announced a two hour delay
    Some left the train, some chose to stay
    Those who stayed in their beds were planning
    For their appointment tomorrow in Hellsville, Kentucky
    But the living ones went to look around
    And spend some time at Reflection Pond
    There were two types of folks on this train as I said
    Those who were alive and those who were dead

    When some got to the pond, there appeared
    An angelic, sky blue, infinite mirror
    Not until they looked into the pond
    Did the people start looking around
    And notice the beautiful water they see
    And notice nature and every tree

    Well the folks at the pond decided to stay
    They would catch the next train three hours away
    On man at the pond said,
    No way in Hell will I get back on that train,
    Im not going that way ever again!

    But those left on the Black Dog had no time for reflections
    They were always thinking of future selections
    Well the Black Dog left with half the passengers on deck
    And just into Hellsville was that fatal train wreck

    Well, there were the folks who stayed at the pond
    They enjoyed it there, but new to move on
    So, they went down to the track
    To await the arrival of the Heavens Rabbit
    The train arrived and the passengers were checked
    And after hearing about the Black Dogs wreck
    The Heavens Rabbit continued up a new track
