All aboard America here comes the freedon train |
|
The freedom train is rolling down two hundred years of track |
|
Two hundred years of glory never to turn back |
|
The train is called America your ticket is a dream |
|
That left the torture of freedom for all the world to see |
|
She left the station in Lexington in 1776 |
|
And rode to Philadelphia where the liberty bell was fixed |
|
George Washington was the engineer John Adams shovelled coal |
|
And Franklin punched the tickets Tom Jefferson added soul |
|
All aboard America here comes the freedon train |
|
She rode to New Orleans the battle of 1812 |
|
With old Hickory at the throttle she drove the British out |
|
The freedom train's a fine train the toppest of world it seemed |
|
Her whistle blows for the liberty with a mighty head of steam |
|
Wheels of fortune sweaty Pittsburg rolled across the Mississipp' |
|
From Texas to Misoury to one real exciting trip |
|
Then bang of track was broken smashed by a cannonball |
|
That blew in great divided will the nation stand or fall |
|
All aboard America here comes the freedon train |
|
Will Annistage stepped into the cab and the wheels began to roll |
|
Freedom train must never stop Republic never fall |
|
To the bloody fields of Gettysburg the tear show in his eyes |
|
She drove the train with fury the freedom train survive |
|
Again the train rode westward to California shores |
|
To the deserts and prairies even stronger than before |
|
From Atlantic to Pacific she drove the rail with pride |
|
She travelled a track to glory with the good Lord on her side |
|
All aboard America here comes the freedon train |
|
There's much more to this story like Wilson and Roosevelt |
|
They left the train to Truman who stoked it mighty well |
|
Then old Dwight D Eisenhower or LBJ we sing |
|
Two brothers known as Kennedy and Martin Luther King |
|
And still the train rolls forward over history's rugged trail |
|
Straightin' by the journey and the land beneath her rail |
|
And you and I roll along and stroke the freedom fire |
|
For we stand to all Americans hold old honor can't be hired |
|
All aboard America here comes the freedon train |
