When the train come along, Lord 

When the train come along, Lord 

Gonna meet her at the station 

When the train come along 

If you see my mother 

And she ask for me, Lord 

Gonna meet her at the station 

When the train come along 

(guitar) 

When the train come along, Lord 

When the train come along, Lord 

Gonna meet her at the station 

When the train come along 

If you see my father 

And he ask for me, Lord 

Gonna meet him at the station 

When the train come along 

(guitar) 

When the train come along, Lord 

When the train come along, Lord 

Gonna meet her at the station 

When the train come along 

When the train come along, Lord 

When the train come along, Lord 

Gonna meet her at the station 

When the train come along 

If you see my father 

And he ask for me, Lord 

Gonna meet him at the station 

When the train come along 

(guitar) 

If you see my mother 

And she ask for me, Lord 

Gonna meet her at the station 

When the train come along.
