Transcript

The Tennessee ghost train is coming around the bend It's coming around with a mighty roar Now all the folks who saw it never had a name for it Was something they had never seen before It's black, long and shiny, it had one flash and I And from a stack how that black smoke had poured

Now the soul would go near it from a mind you could hear it Meet all those sinners kneel on the floor There was no one at the throttle on this fireball of steel It passed you like a rocket in the sky Like a cart pops from a bottle Sparks flew from every wheel

I'm sure it was the devil that made it fly The Tennessee ghost train is coming round the bend Like the roar of the sea that meets the shore While you sleep it may haunt you, then you will never want to see that Tennessee goes train anymore Tennessee goes train is coming round the bend

It's coming round with a mighty, now all the folks who saw it never had a name for it Was something they had never seen before It's black long and shiny, it had one flash and eye And from the stack how that blanks moved it forward Got a soul would go near it from a mine you could hear it

Made all those sinners kneel on the floor There was no one at the throttle on this fireball of steel It passed you like a rocket in the sky Like a mirt pops from the bottle sparks flew from every wheel I'm sure it was the devil that made it fly The Tennessee Ghost train is coming round the bend
