Sing Along

The Hell-Bound Train

A Texas cowboy on a bar room floor
Had drunk so much he could hold no more

He fell asleep with a troubled brain
To dream he rode on the hell-bound train

Faster and faster the engine flew
And wilder and wilder the country grew

Brighter and brighter the lightening flashed
And louder and louder the thunder crashed

Then out of the distance there rose a yell
"Ha ha", said the devil "The next stop is hell"

"My friends you have paid for your seats on this road
The train goes through with a complete load"

"You've bullied the weak, you've cheated the poor
The starving brother turned from your door"

"The labourer always expects his hire
So I'll land you safe in a lake of fire"

Then the cowboy awoke with an anguished cry
His clothes were wet and his hair stood high

And he prayed as he'd never prayed before
To be saved from hell's front door

His prayers and pleadings were not in vain
For he never rode on the hell-bound train.
