Woody Guthrie - Little Black Train

Woody Guthrie - Little Black Train Lyrics

Send Little Black Train Ringtone to your Cell

There`s a little black train a-coming,
Coming down the track.
You`ve got to ride that little black train
but it ain`t a-gonna bring you back.

You may be a bar-room gambler
And cheat your way through life,
But you can`t cheat that little black train
Or beat this final ride.

You silken bar-room ladies,
dressed in your wordly pride.
You`ve got to ride that little black train,
That`s coming in tonight.

Your million dollar fortune,
Your mansion glittering white,
You can`t take it with you
When the train moves in tonight

Get ready for your saviour
Pick your business right.
You`ve got to ride that little black train,
To make this final ride.

You silken bar-roomladies,
dressed in your worldly pride,
You`ve got to ride that little black train
That`s coming in tonight

You may be a bar-room gambler,
Cheat your way through life,
But you can`t cheat that little black train,
Or beat this final ride.

There`s a little black train a-coming,
Coming down the track.
You`ve got to ride that little black train
but it ain`t a-gonna bring you back.
