People Get Ready / Train of Glory
People, get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no ticket
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord
People get ready
For the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers
From coast to coast
Faith is the key
Open the doors and board them
There's room for all
Amongst the loved the most
've seen that engine comin'
Was five years ago
She was rollin' big and black
You shouda heard that whistle blow
The train slowed down around the bend
Well, I believe I'll take a ride
Trainman get me satisfied
Here come the train of glory
It's comin' right on time
Won't cha do me a favor
Pick up my friends along the line
Well, I'm layin' at the other end
I got my suitcase under my head
I take my friends a message
Tell 'em what I said
Tell 'em I need some money
So I can buy a drink or two
And ask them nice if they'll
Come back with you
Here come the train of glory
It's comin' right on time
Won't cha do me a favor
Pick up my friends along the line
Here conductor
I'm a gonna ask you once again
Well, didn't you leave Ohio with
A heavy load of friends
Say yes, boy
Well I left the station
Your friends were on board
West Virginia was all they could afford
Here come the train of glory
It's comin' right on time
Won't cha do me a favor
Pick up my friends along the line
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no ticket
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord
People get ready
For the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers
From coast to coast
Faith is the key
Open the doors and board them
There's room for all
Amongst the loved the most
've seen that engine comin'
Was five years ago
She was rollin' big and black
You shouda heard that whistle blow
The train slowed down around the bend
Well, I believe I'll take a ride
Trainman get me satisfied
Here come the train of glory
It's comin' right on time
Won't cha do me a favor
Pick up my friends along the line
Well, I'm layin' at the other end
I got my suitcase under my head

It's comin' right on time
Won't cha do me a favor
Pick up my friends along the line
