• Down There By The Train

There's a place I know, where the train goes slow
Where the sinners can be washed in the blood of the lamb
There's a river by the trestle down by Sinner's Grove
Down where the Willow and the Dogwood grows

Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there where the train
goes slow

You can hear the whistle, you can hear the bell
From the halls of heaven to the gates of hell
And there's room for the forsaken if you're there on time
You'll be washed of all your sins and all of your crimes

Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there where the train
goes slow

There's a golden moon that shines up through the mist
And I know that your name will be on that list
There's no eye for an eye, there's no tooth for a tooth
I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth

Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there where the train
goes slow

So, if you live in darkness, if you live in shame
All of the passengers will be treated the same
And, old Humpty Jackson and Gyp the Blood will sing
And Charlie Witman is on the Dillinger's wings

Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there where the train
goes slow

If you've lost all your hope, if you've lost all your faith
I know you will be cared for and I know you will be safe
And all the shameful and all of the whores
And even the soldier who pierced the heart of the lord

Is down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there where the train
goes slow

Well, I've never asked forgiveness and I've never said a prayer
I've never given of myself, and I’ve never truly cared
And I've hurt the ones who loved me and I'm still raising Cain
And I've taken the low road and if you've done the same

Meet me down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there where the train
goes slow

Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there where the train
goes slow
Down there where the train
goes slow
