[Verse 1]
Grab your ticket and your suitcase
Thunder's rolling down this track
Well, you don't know where you're going now
But you know you won't be back
Well, darling if you're weary
Lay your head upon my chest
We'll take what we can carry
Yeah, and we'll leave the rest

[Chorus]
Big wheels roll through fields where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

[Verse 2]
Well, I will provide for you
And I'll stand by your side
You'll need a good companion now
For this part of the ride
Yeah, leave behind your sorrows
Let this day be the last
Well, tomorrow there'll be sunshine
And all this darkness past

[Chorus]
Big wheels roll through fields where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams
[Bridge]
Well, this train carries saints and sinners
This train carries losers and winners
This train carries whores and gamblers
This train carries lost souls
I said this train, dreams will not be thwarted
This train, faith will be rewarded
This train, hear the steel wheels singing
This train, bells of freedom ring

[Saxophone solo]

[Bridge]
Well, this train carries saints and sinners
This train carries losers and winners
This train carries whores and gamblers
This train carries lost souls
I said, this train carries broken-hearted
This train, thieves and sweet souls departed
This train carries fools and kings
Oh, this train, all aboard
I said, now this train, dreams will not be thwarted
This train, faith will be rewarded
This train, hear the steel wheels singing
This train, bells of freedom ring
[Saxophone solo]

Come on this train
Come on this train (train)
Come on this train (train)
Let me see your hands
Come on this train (train)
Come on this train (train)

{People Get Ready}

People get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no ticket
All you gotta do is get onboard
