"Freedom Train (Live)" lyrics

"Freedom Train (Live)"

The freedom train is coming, can't you hear the whistle blowing
It's time to get your ticket and get on board
It's time for all the people to take this freedom ride
Get it together and work for freedom side by side

I'm gonna ride on the freedom train
I ain't gonna live this way again
I'm gonna get on the freedom train
From this day on I'll be a free man
(Yes, I will, I'll be a free man)

Seems like the times are changing, people
The trains waiting at the station
Go on up to the mountain top and get on board
We're gonna ride on through the valley
Under the clear blue sky
Everybody's gonna stand up proud with their heads held high

I'm gonna ride on the freedom train
I ain't gonna live this way again
I'm gonna get on the freedom train
From this day on I'll be a free man
(Yes, I will, I'll be a free man)

Keep on moving, cast your vote
Tell 'em where to get off, keep on going
We're gonna see the mountains, keep on going
Gotta get your ticket, the freedom train
