[Ab] There's a [Eb] little black train a-comin' Set your [Ab] business right
There's a little black train a [Eb]-comin' That may be here [Ab] tonight
Go tell that ballroom lady All dressed in the worldly pride
That this dark train is comin' [Eb] Prepared to take [Ab] a ride
God said to Hesakai Come hested from on high
You'd better set your house in order [Eb] Or you must [Ab] surely die
He turned to the wall and weeping We see him here in tears
He got his business fixed [Eb] all right God spared him [Ab] fifteen years
There's a little black train a-comin' Set your business right
There's a little black train a [Eb]-comin' That may be here [Ab] tonight
Go tell that ballroom lady All dressed in the worldly pride
That [Eb] this dark train is comin' Prepared to take [Ab] a ride
We see that train with Injun And one small baggage car
Your idle thoughts and wicked [Eb] deeds Will stop at the Judgment [Ab] Bar
There's a little black train a-comin' Set your business right
There's a little black train a-comin' [Eb] That may be [Ab] here tonight
Go tell that ballroom lady All dressed in the worldly pride
That this dark train is comin' [Eb] Prepared to [Ab] take a ride
That poor young man in darkness Cared not for the gospel light
Till suddenly heard the whistle [Eb] blow While the little black train [Ab] inside
Have mercy on me Lord Please come and set me right
Before he got his business fixed [Eb] The train rolled in [Ab] that night
There's a little black train a-comin' Set your business right
There's a little black train [Eb] a-comin' That may be [Ab] here tonight
Go tell that ballroom lady All dressed in the worldly pride
That [Eb] this dark train is comin' Prepared to take [Ab] a ride
