Little Black Train

Lyrics

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.
