Jubilee Train

[Verse 1]
Honest John was a dirt farming man
Worked everyday in his life
Dust blew up and the banks closed him down
He heard about a Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train

[Verse 2]
Broadway Eddie was an uptown man
Never worked a day in his life
Stocks crashed down left him out in the cold
He heard about a Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train

[Chorus]
You could see the men in the Hooverville
Hear the poor women cry
Get on board, there’s a New Deal comin’
Get on board, there’s a New Deal comin’
Heard about a Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train

[Verse 3]
Bеtty Jean was a factory girl
Never had anothеr job in her life
Factory closed down, she was out on the street
She heard about a Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train

[Verse 4]
Hometown Jimmy was a family man
Lived for his children and his wife
Business fell off and he lined up the bread
He heard about a Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train

[Chorus]
You could see the men in the Hooverville
Hear the poor women cry
Get on board, there’s a New Deal comin’
Get on board, there’s a New Deal comin’
Heard about a Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train

[Verse 5]
There’s a young boy on the side of the tracks
Alone with a flag in his hand
He heard the train pass by years ago
He's waiting for the Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train

[Chorus]
You could see the men in the Hooverville
Hear the poor women cry
Get on board, there’s a New Deal comin’
Get on board, there’s a New Deal comin’
Heard about a Jubilee Train, heard about a Jubilee Train
