Lyrics

The Gospel train's a'comin'
I hear it just at hand
I hear the car wheel rumblin'
And rollin' thro' the land

Get on board little children
Get on board little children
Get on board little children
There's room for many more

I hear the train a'comin'
She's comin' round the curve
She's loosened all her steam and brakes
And strainin' ev'ry nerve

The fare is cheap and all can go
The rich and poor are there
No second class aboard this train
No difference in the fare

Get on board little children
Get on board little children
Get on board little children
There's room for many more

In researching authentic slave songs for a Black History presentation I'm creating this is the best version of Gospel Train's A Coming I've found. This song refers to the Underground Railroad and was sung by plantation slaves to let them know that a group of slaves was about to make the journey north and sometimes to alert them that a "conductor" was in their midst. Thank you Jualmir for singing it so clearly!
