[B] When I was a boy, my daddy used to take [F] me and my little old sister
about a mile and [Gm] a half from our house on Saturday
to watch an old freight train [B] come by.
[E]
It wasn't no big thing, but it was mighty big for me and my little old sister.
I remember he used to sing an old gospel folk song
called, This Train, to kind of get us in the mood.
I remember one time when that old freight train was just barely in view.
My dad said, Boy, you listen real close as this old freight train comes by
and you can hear it whispering, Jesus.
I was telling the girls about that in
the bus one day.
Started singing this old song my dad
used to sing to me.
Little Jan started making the drivers
go by whispering, Jesus.
Girlie made the whistle.
[A] We come up with a little [E] old song called, Sum Another,
like this right here.
[Em]
I hear that train a-comin', comin' around the curve,
huffin' and a-blowin' and [B] a-straightenin' [Em] every curve.
Get [A] on board, [E] get on board, we'll [A] get on board.
[Em] [E]
[Em] Well, this train won't carry no gamblers, this train.
[E] This train won't carry [B] no gamblers, this train.
[E] This train won't carry no [A] gamblers, liquor drink in the midnight [E] ramblers.
Clown for glory, this train.
[Em] The engineer is ready
and the throttles [E] in his hands, [Em] gonna [E] take him to the
[B]
[Em] [A] [E]
[A] [Em]
[E] church.
I told you if anything happened, it happened to me.
Last week I bought a suit with two pair of pants
for a hole in the coat.
On the way over here, I stopped, ordered a tuna fish
sandwich, got Charlie.
You go ahead, I'll think of it
in a minute.
I tell you what, you think that ain't
hard to do.
Just for the fun of it, on the way home
tonight, just as hard as you go.
You try that for
four or five minutes, nearly blow the top of your head off.
We had to pick the one in our group, had the most hot air in there for this talk.
I'll tell you when to oozle.
You don't oozle like it through coffee.
Boy, you can't hardly find no help worth nothing nowadays.
After 35 years, she still don't know when to oozle.
On the back of her shoe, we had to print
EGIF.
That means toes go in first.
[Em] Well, this train is bound for glory, this [E] train.
This train is bound for glory, this train.
