This Train

Is Bound For

GloryBy Johnny

Cash & June

CarterWe’re gonna ride the

Bible train now

No some won’t ride, but we’re going get on the

Bible train

Some ride but not all the way

The Bible train is in the yard now and it’s waiting and oh it looks so good

But you might get bored and impatient waiting like those two good brothers over there

They pass around the bottle in the car before they got on the train

Just want to take one more for the road and then, that leads to something else

Well they ain’t on the train no more and maybe 9 or 10 got off with them

There’s a sister in the church and she says to her friend your husband works at night and so does mine, why don’t we justget together sometime when they’re gone and go downtown and find us some action, well then they gotta get off the

Bible train.

And then another man he’s sitting over there looking at a woman in the corner and he’s gives her that eye, you know and theymeet later, secretly, so they got to get off, this train’s got a 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 than different reasonsjust before the train pulls out, but listen its 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 for glory nobody rides it but the righteous and holy,

This train is bound for glory, this train

This train is a free train, this train,

This train is a free train,

Everybody rides in

Jesus’ name

This train is a free train, this train,

This train it don’t pull no liars, this train

This train don’t pull no liars, this train
