Bunny Wailer


When I was just a kid, little children
My old man used to sing a litle song
But now I've grown to be a man 
But it still lingers deep within my soul
Oh yes it lingers deep within my soul

He say now this train it is bound to glory, this train 
This train it is bound to glory this train, this train 
This train it is bound to glory, This train it don't carry no unholy 
This train is bound to glory, this train

Now this train it don't carry no backsliders, this train
This train don't carry no backsliders, this train
This train it don't carry no backsliders this train only carrry JAH 
JAH children 
this train it is bound to glory, this train
Play a little song for me

----

This train don't carry no unholy this train.
This train don't carry no unholy this train
This train it don't carry no unholy, 
This train only carry the children of JAH
This train it is bound to glory, this train

There's so many things to remember
So many things to forget
But these word they do linger deep within my soul
Lingers deep within my soul

He say now this train it is bound to glory, this train 
This train it is bound to glory this train, this train 
This train it is bound to glory, This train it don't carry no unholy 
This train is bound to glory, this train

(let me hear the choir sing)
This train
This train
This train (I don't wanna be late)
This train
This train

This train is bound to glory
This train is bound to glory. Yau (repeat)

(ADLIBBING),
I'll be turning back for no brother no sister 
no friend no nothing at all

I'll be crabbing the morning train 
the evening train will be too late (repeat)

Grab on brothers 
Grab on sisters 
Grab on mother 
Grab on father
Grab on friend 
THIS TRAIN
