Verse 1

The devil's train is long and black

It rides on rails of tears

It's headed for destruction now

With a drunken engineer

Verse 2

Oh, see the greatness of the crowd

That wait beside the track

They're leaving on that devil's train

And never coming back

Chorus

Oh lord please stop that devil's train

Before it is too late

And teach them how to bow their heads

Before they seal their fate

Verse 3

The devil's train will take you too

A land of groans and pain

You'll spend your days in sorrow if

You ride that devil's train

Verse 4

Oh listen to that whistle scream

Like echoes from the gloom

The throttles wide and spouting steam

She's on her way to doom

Verse 5

The devil's train is long and black

It's beautiful too see

It offers you temptation but

It brings you misery

Verse 6

So come and ride that glory train

Where happiness is free

It's on its way to heaven now

To spend eternity
