Little Black Train Woody Guthrie

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
Fix your business right
You've got to ride that little black train
To make this final ride

You silken bar-room ladies
Dressed in your worldly pride
You've got to ride that little black train
That's coming in tonight
