lyrics

Well, when I was a bot, on my granddad's knee
He'd say, "Hear me son, listen carefully"
"There's just one thing I gotta explain,
Nobody got to Heaven by ridin' a train."

Bless my soul, praise His name on high
In the end, a man like me can spread his wings and fly
There'll be people at the depot when they ring that bell
Standin' in line for the Railway to Hell

Well, when man made the train, he used cold rolled steel
And the Devil come up to him, said "Let's make a deal"
"I'll put life in your beast, let you use it for free
But in the end, brother, he's a come-a workin' for me"

Bless my soul, praise His name on high
In the end, a man like me can spread his wings and fly
There'll be people at the depot when they ring that bell
Standin' in line for the Railway to Hell

Now the train got a whistle, long and low
She's callin' out to all of them poor lost souls
Sayin' "Come on boy, some folk do
Ignorance is bliss, but it ain't no excuse"

Bless my soul, praise His name on high
In the end, a man like me can spread his wings and fly
There'll be people at the depot when they ring that bell
Standin' in line for the Railway to Hell
