People Get Ready

People get ready

There's a train a-coming

Don't need no ticket

You can just step on board

All we need is a little faith

To hear the diesel humming

We ain't got to have no baggage, Al

We can just thank the Lord

You tell 'em

People get ready

There's a train to Jordan (Yes, it is)

Don't need no ticket

You just step on board

All we need is faith to hear the diesel comin'

You don't need a ticket

You just thank the Lord

I say thank the Lord, thank the Lord

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord[Verse 3: Laura Lee]

Y'all got to get ready now

The train is comin'

You don't need no ticket

You can just step on board

But all you need is a little faith

You can hear the diesel runnin'

You ain't even got to have no bags

You can just get on board

Al, why don't you help me tell 'em

People get ready

For the train to Jordan

Oh, the Master's comin'

Get on board (Yeah, yeah)

All we need is faith to hear the diesel hummin'

Oh, you don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord
