Now I've been happy lately

Thinking about the good things to come

And I believe it could be

Something good has begun

Oh I've been smiling lately

Dreaming about the world as one

And I believe it could be

Some day it's going to come

Cause out on the edge of darkness

There rides a peace train

Oh peace train take this country

Come take me home again

Now I've been smiling lately

Thinking about the good things to come

And I believe it could be

Something good has begun

Oh peace train sounding louder

Glide on the peace train

Oh oh oh oh

Come on now peace train

Yes peace train holy roller

Everyone jump upon the peace train

Oh oh oh oh

Come on now peace train

Get your bags together

Go bring your good friends too

'Cause it's getting nearer

It soon will be with you

Now come and join the living

It's not so far from you

And it's getting nearer

Soon it will all be true

Oh peace train sounding louder

Glide on the peace train

Oh oh oh oh

Come on now peace train peace train

Oh oh oh oh

Now I've been crying lately

Thinking about the world as it is

Why must we go on hating

Why can't we live in bliss

Cause out on the edge of darkness

There rides a peace train

Oh peace train take this country

Come take me home again

Oh peace train sounding louder

Glide on the peace train

Oh oh oh oh

Come on now peace train

Yes peace train holy roller

Everyone jump upon the peace train

Oh oh oh oh

Come on come on come on

Come on peace train

This is the peace train

Come on now peace train peace train

Oh oh oh oh
