創作背景
“NIGHTRAIN的RIFF一開始是IZZY寫出來的,我們不知道怎么往下編,但那個調子總是環繞在樂隊成員的意識里。直到我們意識到我們共同的愛好—NIGHT TRAIN酒,當時2美元一瓶,18度的便宜福特加,沒錢的時候我們都整瓶整瓶的喝那個。那天夜裡我們就幾個醉鬼抱著一瓶NIGHT TRAIN在小巷裡溜達,我不記得誰了,但是有人開始唱起了和弦部分‘I’m ON THE NIGHT TRAIN(我喝NIGHT TRAIN喝高了)’,我們都一塊跟著吼,然後AXL就開始即興加上了 ‘BOTTOMS UP!(乾杯!)’ ‘FILL MY CUP!(滿上!)’ ‘LOVE THAT STUFF(就愛這口)’和 I’M READY TO CRASH AND BURN (我要喝個爛醉)’。 NIGHT TRAIN這首歌太神奇了,和PARADISE CITY很像,因為那首歌非常完整的體現了當時我們幾個人生活和精神的現狀,大家的創作靈感都非常默契的相互交織在一起。這首歌讓我們大家都特興奮,我不記得是之後的那個夜晚或者是第二天一早,NIGHT TRAIN這首歌就成型了,AXL填寫了歌詞,我們稍加修飾,就這么簡單。幾天之後的演出上我們就開始演奏這首歌,直到現在,每次我們表演這首歌的時候我都特別興奮,忍不住得上竄下跳,我根本控制不住那種興奮。”——《Slash》
歌詞
Loaded like a freight train
Flyin' like an aeroplane
Feelin' like a space brain
One more time tonight
Look at
Well I'm a west coast struttin'
One bad mother
Got a rattlesnake suitcase
Under my arm
Said I'm a mean machine
Been drinkin' gasoline
And honey you can make my motor hum
Well I'm got one chance left
In a nine live cat
I got a dog eat dog sly smile
I got a Molotov cocktail
With a match to go
I smoke my cigarette with style
An I can tell you honey
You can make my money tonight
Wake up late
Honey put on your clothes
Take your credit card
To the liquor store
That's one for you and Two for me by tonight
I'll be loaded like a freight train
Flyin' like an aeroplane
Feelin' like a space brain
One more time tonight
I'm on the nightrain
Bottoms up
I'm on the nightrain
Fill my cup
I'm on the nightrain
Ready to crash and burn
I never learn
I'm on the nightrain
I love that stuff
I'm on the nightrain
I can never get enough
I'm on the nightrain
Never to return-no
Loaded like a freight train
Flyin' like an aeroplane
Speedin' like a space brain
One more time tonight
I'm on the nightrain
And I'm lookin' for some
I'm on the nightrain
So's I can leave this slum
I'm on the nightrain
And I'm ready to crash and burn
Nightrain
Bottoms up
I'm on the nightrain
Fill my cup
I'm on the nightrain
Ha ha ha Whoa yeah
I'm on the nightrain
Love that stuff
I'm on the nightrain
An I can never get enough
Ridin' the nightrain
I guess I
I guess, I guess, I guess I never learn
On the nightrain
Float me home
Ooh I'm on the nightrain
Ridin' the nightrain
Never to return Nightrain
