the carter family ii - the little black train lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
there’s a little black train a coming
that’ll set your business right
there’s a little black train a coming
and it may be here tonight
go tell that ballroom lady
all dressed in the worldly pride
that death’s dark train is coming
prepare to take a ride

[verse 1]
god sent to hezikah
a message from on high
you better set your house in order
for you must surely die

[verse 2]
he turned to the wall a+weeping
we see him here in tears
he got his business fixed all right
god sparеd him fifteen years

[chorus]
there’s a littlе black train a coming
that’ll set your business right
there’s a little black train a coming
and it may be here tonight
go tell that ballroom lady
all dressed in the worldly pride
that death’s dark train is coming
prepare to take a ride
[verse 3]
we see that train with engine
and one small baggage car
your idle thoughts and wicked deeds
will stop at the judgement bar

[verse 4]
that poor young man in darkness
cared not for the gospel light
till suddenly he heard the whistle blow
on the little black train, and sighed

[chorus]
there’s a little black train a coming
that’ll set your business right
there’s a little black train a coming
and it may be here tonight
go tell that ballroom lady
all dressed in the worldly pride
that death’s dark train is coming
prepare to take a ride

[verse 5]
“have mercy on me, please
come and set me right.”
before he got his business fixed
his train rolled in that night
[chorus]
there’s a little black train a coming
that’ll set your business right
there’s a little black train a coming
and it may be here tonight
go tell that ballroom lady
all dressed in the worldly pride
that death’s dark train is coming
prepare to take a ride
