How Long Has The Train Been Gone |
Waitin' for that train they said was comin' … |
I had faith and waited patiently |
But somethin’s tellin' me |
I’m waitin' hopelessly |
For the train has come and gone on without me |
I struggled day and night so I’d be ready |
I tried to make things right inside of me |
But I’ve got a feelin' I’m mistaken |
That the train won’t come in time to rescue me |
How long has that train been gone? |
Why did it leave and not take me? |
— I wanna know! |
How long will the pain go on? |
Will it last forever, will it never leave? |
A friend of mine said he don’t go for Jesus |
He don’t take no stock in all that stuff |
But he wanted to believe |
'cause I saw him on his knees |
Cryin', «Lord have mercy! |
Lord have mercy! |
Lord have mercy! |
Lord have mercy! |
Lord have mercy! |
Lord have mercy, please!» |
How long has that train been gone? |
Tell me, why did it leave and not take me? |
How long will the pain go on? |
Will it last forever, last forever, last forever, last forever |
Last forever, will it never leave? |
Oh yeah! |
