The trouble train is comin'
It's been rollin' through this town
Since I don't know when
The trouble train they call it
And once you're on it
You just can't get off it, my friend

Don't get on that train again
It's rollin' and thunderin' 'round the bend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train
(Trouble train, trouble train)

If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train

The trouble train is comin'
It's full of troubled souls
Who have gone astray
The trouble train is burnin'
It's puffing smoke and fire
And it's headed your way

Now don't get on that train again
It's a long way down
Please listen, my friend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train
(Trouble train, trouble train)

If the devil's calling out your name
He's riding on that trouble train
(Trouble train)

The trouble train's left the station
It's claimed another soul
It'll come back again
The trouble train's damnation
Is a one-way ticket to the fiery end

Don't get on that train again
It's a long way down
Please listen, my friend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on the trouble train

Don't get on that train again
It's a long way down
Please listen, my friend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train
