[Verse 1] Now come all aboard, back in 1904 I was headed for the Cumberland Gap When a hard summer rain Brought death to my train Colorado come to wash me out Well the head engineer Said, "Hear and hear clear Better hang on and hold your cap" And before I could jump Well, those mighty rails sunk And the whole damn bridge collapsed
[Chorus] Well, oh my I'm a train in the sky Sweet Lord, let me feel no fear And before I go down Please tell Barbara Brown Well, I love you, my darling, my dear
[Verse 2] Now the children were crying All the luggage went flying There was coal rolling everywhere And there were lovers in the aisle Knotted up in a pile Goin' hard despite our deep despair And as we tumbled away To that still water grave There was sorrow amongst the air While the Bible was read Well, I bowed down my head And I prayed out my final prayer
[Chorus] Well, oh my I'm a train in the sky Sweet Lord, let me feel no fear And before I go down Please tell Barbara Brown Well, I love you, my darling, my dear
[Verse 3] Now I held my chest And we all held our breath 'Cause we was gettin' down to the end And while that cold water brewed The train whistle blew And it sounded like a howling wind And from the corner of my eye I saw an angel disguised As a man with a violin And he sang us a song It didn't last very long So we asked him to sing it again
[Chorus] Well, oh my I'm a train in the sky Sweet Lord, let me feel no fear And before I go down Please tell Barbara Brown Well, I love you, my darling, my dear You know I love you, my darling, my dear Yes I love you, my darling, my dearTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
