Little Black Train |
| There’s a little black train a-coming |
| Coming down the track |
| You’ve got to ride that little black train |
| But it ain’t a-gonna bring you back |
| You may be a bar-room gambler |
| And cheat your way through life |
| But you can’t cheat that little black train |
| Or beat this final ride |
| You silken bar-room ladies |
| Dressed in your wordly pride |
| You’ve got to ride that little black train |
| That’s coming in tonight |
| Your million dollar fortune |
| Your mansion glittering white |
| You can’t take it with you |
| When the train moves in tonight |
| Get ready for your saviour |
| Pick your business right |
| You’ve got to ride that little black train |
| To make this final ride |
| You silken bar-roomladies |
| Dressed in your worldly pride |
| You’ve got to ride that little black train |
| That’s coming in tonight |
| You may be a bar-room gambler |
| Cheat your way through life |
| But you can’t cheat that little black train |
| Or beat this final ride |
| There’s a little black train a-coming |
| Coming down the track |
| You’ve got to ride that little black train |
| But it ain’t a-gonna bring you back |
