This train is coming down the track
And I hear it calling my name
I got a dollar in my pocket
And I'm hoping that I can make it on okay

All the years of counting on nothing
At least it's on my mind
If I can make it on this time
Then I'll take it on down the line

Well, now this train is coming down my way
This train is gonna make it okay
Yeah, this train is running down full speed
Now this train coming down for me, yeah

At the station with my bottle and a Bible
And I'm waiting on a Northbound train
God's willing and I'm hopeful that he's happy
'Cause I know that I'm feeling no pain

All the years of counting on nothing
Went by in a blink of an eye
Years of fear and blissful tears
You learn to crash before you fly

Well, now this train is coming down my way
Yeah, this train is gonna make it okay
Now this train is running down full speed
Yeah, this train coming down for me, for me
Yeah, I know this train

Yeah, I know this train is coming down my way
I know this train is gonna make it okay
I know this train she's running down full speed
I know this train is coming down for me, for me

Yeah, about this train, I know this train
I know this train, I know this train, yeah
This train, this train, this train, this train
