there's a long black train
comin'down the line
feedin'off the souls
that are lost and cryin'
rails of sin only evil remains
watch out brother
for that long black train
look to the heavens
you can look to the skies
you can find redemption
staring back into your eyes
there is protection
and there's peace the same
burnin your ticket
for that long black train
cause there's victory in the lord i say
victory in the lord
cling to the father and his holy name
and don't go ridin'
on that long black train
there's an engineer
on that long black train
making you wonder
if the ride is worth the pain
he's just a waitin'on your heart to say
let me ride on that long black train
but you know
there's victory in the lord i say
victory in the lord
cling to the father and his holy name
and don't go ridin'
on that long black train
well i can hear the whistle
from a mile away
it sounds so good
but i must stay away
that train is a beauty
makin'everybody stare
but it's only destination
is the middle of nowhere
but you know
there's victory in the lord i say
victory in the lord
cling to the father and his holy name
and don't go ridin'
on that long black train
i said cling to the father
and his holy name
and don't go ridin'
on that long black train
yeah watch out brother
for that long black train
that devil's a drivin
that long black train
