"Lonely Train"
Song

"Lonely Train" is the debut single of the hard rock band Black Stone Cherry from their self-titled album which was released on July 18, 2006. It peaked at #14 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks Billboard chart, and was also selected as a free single on iTunes in July 2006.

Music video

Additionally, a music video in black and white, giving the video a dark and gloomy feeling in combination with the aggressive manner of the song, was directed for "Lonely Train", which features the band members playing in a warehouse in post-Hurricane Katrina New Orleans, which the band thought was an appropriate setting to reflect the song's anti-war statement.

The song has a heavy chugging riff and deep growly vocals. With its distorted, aggressive heavy metal sound it differs slightly from the group's Southern rock, hard rock sound.

In pop culture

The song was featured in the wrestling game WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007.

It was used as the theme song for the 2006 WWE The Great American Bash PPV.
