Song Lyrics

People get ready, there's a train comin'
You don't need no ticket, no, you just get on board
And all you need is faith to hear his [Incomprehensible] hummin'
Don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord, just thank the Lord

Yeah, yeah, you just get on

People get ready, 'cos there's a train comin'
It's pickin' up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board 'em
There's room for all if you'll just love the Lord

There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own?
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner?
Cos' there's no hiding place around the kingdom's throne

People get ready, 'cos there's a train comin'
You don't need no ticket, no, you just get on board
Faith is the key, open the doors and board 'em
Don't need no ticket, no no, you just thank the Lord

Curtis Mayfield
