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
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
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
If you see my mother
And she ask for me, Lord
Gonna meet her at the station
When the train come along.
