Verse 1

Grab your ticket and your suitcase, thunder's rollin' down this track
Well you don't know where you're goin' now, but you know you won't be back
Well, darlin' if you're weary, put your head upon my chest
We'll take what we can carry and we'll leave the rest 
Big wheels roll through fields where sunlight streams 
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams - repeat main riff 2x

Verse 2

Well, I will provide for you and I'll stand by your side
You'll need a good companion, now, for this part of the ride
Leave behind your sorrows, let this day be the last
Tomorrow there'll be sunshine and all this darkness past 
Big wheels roll through fields where sunlight streams 
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams - repeat main riff 2x

Chorus

This train, carries saints and sinners
This train, carries losers and winners
This train, carries whores and gamblers
This train, carries lost souls
This train, dreams will not be thwarted
This train faith will be rewarded
This train, hear the steel wheels singin'
This train, bells of freedom ringin'
[Sax Solo] w/ Main Riff
    
     

Chorus

This train, carries saints and sinners
This train, carries losers and winners
This train, carries whores and gamblers
This train, carries lost souls
This train, carries brokenhearted
This train, theives and sweet souls departed
This train, carries fools and kings,
This train, all aboard
This train, dreams will not be thwarted
This train faith will be rewarded
This train, hear the steel wheels singin'
This train, bells of freedom ringin'
[Sax Solo] 2/w Main Riff
