I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now
I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now
So long I've been waiting, waiting for you, oh yeah
Now the time has come, when it's between you and me, oh Lord
I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now, now, now, now
I say the train is coming baby
And I am leaving on that train, Lord
I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now
I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now
Everyday I pray for this little hour
Now the time has come and I want you to stand by me
Because the train is coming baby
And we are leaving on that train
And we will roam this land, where we all will be free, Lord
I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now
I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now
I say the train is coming baby
I say the train is coming now
Everyday I pray for this little hour
Now the time has come and I want you to stand by me
Because the train is coming baby
And we are leaving on that train
