    People get ready There's a train a comin' You don't need no baggage you just get on board All you need is faith To hear the diesel comin' Don't need no ticket you just thank the Lord People get ready Train to Jordan Picking up passengers from coast to coast Faith is key Open the doors and board them There's hope for all among the love the most There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own soul Have pity on those whose choices grow thinner There ain't no hiding place from the Kingdom's throne People get ready There's a train a comin' You don't need no baggage you just get on board All you need is faith To hear the diesel comin' Don't need no ticket you just thank the Lord There's a train there's a train there's a train comin' people There's a train there's a train there's a train comin' people There's a train there's a train there's a train comin' people Just get on board There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own soul Have pity on those whose choices grow thinner There ain't no hiding place from the Kingdom's throne lead vocal: Ziggy Marley dj: Stephen Marley harmonies: Cedella Marley, Sharon Marley, Erica Newell drums: Wilburn Cole bass: Glen Brownie guitars: Earl Smith & Ian Coleman keyboards: Carol McLaughlin & Mallory Williams percussion: Uzziah Thompson
