- Little Black Train Lyrics / with translationsThere'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.
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
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.
