Hank Thompson This Train Lyrics

 

Well

This train don't carry no liars, this train

This train don't carry no liars, this train

This train don't carry no liars

Knee-high dresses, and home-brew buyers

This train don't carry no liars, this train

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 the holy

This train is bound for glory, this train

This train don't carry no jokers, this train

This train don't carry no jokers, this train

This train don't carry no jokers

No small tippers and cigarette smokers

This train don't carry no jokers, this train

Well,

Well

This train don't carry no gamblers, this train

This train don't carry no gamblers, this train

This train don't carry no gamblers

No crap shooters and midnight ramblers

This train don't carry no gamblers, this train
