Hmmm. Compare this song with Morning Train from one of the early Peter, Paul and Mary albums.

Thread Name: Lyr Req: I'm on my way to the kingdom land

Subject: ADD: Monring Train (Peter Paul & Mary)

Peter, Paul and Mary sang this on their second album, "Moving", 1963. I'm surprised it doesn't seem to be posted anywhere. It was one of their better songs.

MORNING TRAIN

I'm goin' home on the morning train.
I'm goin' home on the morning train.
I'm goin' home on the morning train.
If you don't see me, you can hear me singing.
All my sins been taken away, taken away.

Sister Mary wore three links of chain.
Sister Mary wore three links of chain.
Sister Mary wore three links of chain.
On each link was my Jesus name.
All my sins been taken away, taken away.

I'm on my way to the freedom land.
I'm on my way to the freedom land.
I'm on my way to the freedom land.
Lord God Almighty, hold my hand.
All my sins been taken away, taken away.

Well I don't know but I been told,
Streets in heaven paved in gold.
Keep your hand on that plow, hold on.
Hold on, hold on, keep your hand on that plow, hold on.

The devil he has a slippery shoe,
And if you don't watch out he'll slip it on you.
Keep your hand on that plow, hold on.
Hold on, hold on, keep your hand on that plow, hold on.

I'm goin' home on the morning train.
I'm goin' home on the morning train.
I'm goin' home on the morning train.
If you don't see me, you can hear me singing.
All my sins been taken away, taken away.
