Lyrics
Oh, there's a train a-comin'
People get ready, there's a train a-comin'
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesel's hummin'
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the lord
So people get ready, there's a train to Jordan
Picking up passengers, close to post
Faith is the key to open the doors and board them
There's hope for all, among those of the mould
Oh, people get ready, yeah
People get ready
Oh, oh-oh
There ain't no room for the holy sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own
So have pity on those whose chances grow thinner
For there's no hiding faith against a kingdom strong
So people get ready, there's a train a-comin'
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesel's hummin'
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the lord
You don't need no ticket, oh
Thank the lord
There's a train a-comin'
You don't need a ticket
(People get ready) All you need is your faith
To keep those people comin'
(People get ready) There's a train
That might be early in the mornin'
It might be late in the evenin' (people get ready)
Or the midnight hour, so people get ready
There's a train a-comin'
(People get ready)
