Movin' movin' down the line
Comes the train of sorrow,
Crossin' on your heart and mine
Where it stops awhile.
You can buy your ticket now
For a sad tomorrow,
It's a long way down the line
'Til you find your way.

Hold on and we can make it together,
Sunshine is gonna clear up the weather,
Better days are comin', better days are comin'.

As we drift from day to day
Someone's there to watch us.
You can ease your tired soul
If you raise your head.
Ridin' over rocky ground
Makes you kind of wonder
If you're gonna make it last through another day.

Hold on and we can make it together,
Sunshine is gonna clear up the weather,
Better days are comin', better days are comin'.

Time for a celebration,
There'll be a new tomorrow,
Time for a jubilation,
Jump off the train of sorrow.
There'll be a brighter mornin'
If you can tell this story,
Ride on the train of glory, not on the train of sorrow.
No no no no, no no no no no no no,
No no no no no, no no no no no no no no.

Hold on and we can make it together,
Sunshine is gonna clear up the weather,
Better days are comin', better days are comin',
Better days are comin', better days are comin'.

Time for a celebration,
There'll be a new tomorrow,
Time for a jubilation,
Jump off the train of sorrow.
There'll be a brighter mornin'
If you can tell this story,
Ride on the train of glory, not on the train of sorrow.
No no no no, no no no no no no no,
No no no no no, no no no no no no no no...
