Woody Guthrie added a few verses in the 1940s, and other people have been adding them since. Here are a couple of original verses , plus a few new ones that seem to resonate with our times. There is room for more if you'd like to contribute: This Train Is Bound for Glory-2025 This train is bound for glory, this train; This train is bound for glory, this train; This train is bound for glory, Don't ride nothin' but the righteous an' the holy; This train is bound for glory, this train.
