Grab your ticket and your suitcase

Thunder's rollin' down this track

Well, you don't know where you're goin' now

But you know you won't be back

Well, darlin' if you're weary

Lay your head upon my chest

We'll take what we can carry

Yeah, and we'll leave the rest

Big wheels roll through fields

Where sunlight streams

Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

Well, I will provide for you

And I'll stand by your side

You'll need a good companion now

For this part of the ride

Leave behind your sorrows

Let this day be the last

Tomorrow there'll be sunshine

And all this darkness past

Big wheels roll through fields

Where sunlight streams

Oh meet me in a land of hope and dreams

This train...

Carries saints and sinners

This train...

Carries losers and winners

This train...

Carries whores and gamblers

This train...

Carries lost souls

I said this train...

Dreams will not be thwarted

This train...

Faith will be rewarded
