We’re gonna ride the Bible train nowNo some won’t ride, but we’re going get on the Bible trainSome ride but not all the wayThe Bible train is in the yard now and it’s waiting and oh it looks so goodBut you might get bored and impatient waiting like those two good brothers over thereThey pass around the bottle in the car before they got on the trainJust want to take one more for the road and then, that leads to something elseWell they ain’t on the train no more and maybe 9 or 10 got off with themThere’s a sister in the church and she says to her friend your husband works at night and so does mine, why don’t we justget together sometime when they’re gone and go downtown and find us some action, well then they gotta get off the Bible train.And then another man he’s sitting over there looking at a woman in the corner and he’s gives her that eye, you know and theymeet later, secretly, so they got to get off, this train’s got a rule against adultery.And while all this is happening the train is getting ready to go, but there’s a lot more to get off than different reasonsjust before the train pulls out, but listen its starting to move now, listen to it.Here we go….As it leaves the man on the caboose with a long white beard says,This train is bound for glory, this train,This train is bound for glory, this train,This train is bound for glory nobody rides it but the righteous and holy,This train is bound for glory, this trainThis train is a free train, this train,This train is a free train, this train,This train is a free train,Everybody rides in Jesus’ nameThis train is a free train, this train,This train it don’t pull no liars, this trainThis train don’t pull no liars, this trainThis train don’t pull no liars,No false pretenders and no backbitersThis train don’t pull no liars, this train.This train is a clean train, this trainThis train is a clean train, this trainThis train is a clean train,Everybody rides it in Jesus’ nameThis train is a clean train, this trainDo you want to ride it children, this holy train?Do you want to ride it children, this righteous train?Get on boardGet on boardGet on boardGet on board this holy trainGet on boardGet on boardGet on board this holy train
