[C#]
We're going to ride the Bible train now.
No, some won't ride, but we're going to get on the Bible train.
Some ride, but [G#m] not all [C] the way.
[C#] Bible train is in the yard now and it's waiting and oh, it [G#m] looks so [C#] good.
But you might get bored and impatient waiting like those two good brothers [G#m] over there.
[C#] They passed around the bottle in the car before they got on the train.
Just want to take one more for the road and that leads to something else.
Well they ain't on the [G#m] train no, [C#] [C#m] and [C#] maybe nine or ten got off with.
There's a sister in the church and she says to her friend, your husband works at night
and so is mine.
Why don't we just get together sometime when they're gone, go downtown, find us some action.
Well [G#] then [C#m] they got to get off the [C#] Bible train.
And then another man, he's sitting over there [G#m] looking at a [C#] woman in the corner and he gives
her that eye, you know, and they meet later secretly.
So they got to get on.
This train's got to rule against adultery.
And while all this is happening, the train is getting ready to go.
But there's a lot more to get off for different reasons just before the train pulls out.
But listen, it's starting to move now.
Listen to it.
Here we go.
As it leaves, the man on the caboose with a long white beard says,
This train is bound for glory, this train.
This train is bound [D#] for glory, [G#] this train.
[C#] This train is bound for glory.
[F#] Nobody rides it but the righteous [C#] and the holy.
This train [G#m] is bound for [C#] glory, this train.
This train is a free train, this train.
This train is a free train, [G#] this train.
[C#] This train is a [F] free [F#] train.
Everybody rides in [C#] Jesus' name.
This train [G#] is a free [C#m] train, [D#m] this [C#] train.
This train don't fool no liars, this train.
This train don't fool no [G#] liars, this train.
[C#] This train don't [F] fool no [F#] liars.
Bath pretenders and [A#m] go back [C#] buyers.
[G#] This train don't fool no [C#] liars.
This train is a clean train, this train.
This train is a clean [G#] train, this train.
[C#] This train is a clean [F#] train.
Everybody rides it in [C#] Jesus' name, the [G#] Queen [C#] train, the train.
Do you want to ride it, children, this holy [C#m] train?
Do you [C#] want to ride it, children, this [G#] righteous train?
Get [C#] on board, get on board, get [F#] on board, get on board, [C#] get [G#] on board this holy [C#] train.
Get on board, get on board, get on board.
