paroles de chanson Barbara's Song - Ian Noe

Now come all aboard, back in 1904
I was headed for the Cumberland Gap
When a hard summer rain
Brought death to my train
Colorado come to wash me out
Well the head engineer
Said, "Hear and hear clear
Better hang on and hold your cap"
And before I could jump
Well, those mighty rails sunk
And the whole damn bridge collapsed
Well, oh my
I'm a train in the sky
Sweet Lord, let me feel no fear
And before I go down
Please tell Barbara Brown
Well, I love you, my darling, my dear
Now the children were crying
All the luggage went flying
There was coal rolling everywhere
And there were lovers in the aisle
Knotted up in a pile
Goin' hard despite our deep despair
And as we tumbled away
To that still water grave
There was sorrow amongst the air
While the Bible was read
Well, I bowed down my head
And I prayed out my final prayer
Well, oh my
I'm a train in the sky
Sweet Lord, let me feel no fear
And before I go down
Please tell Barbara Brown
Well, I love you, my darling, my dear
Now I held my chest
And we all held our breath
'Cause we was gettin' down to the end
And while that cold water brewed
The train whistle blew
And it sounded like a howling wind
And from the corner of my eye
I saw an angel disguised
As a man with a violin
And he sang us a song
It didn't last very long
So we asked him to sing it again
Well, oh my
I'm a train in the sky
Sweet Lord, let me feel no fear
And before I go down
Please tell Barbara Brown
Well, I love you, my darling, my dear
You know I love you, my darling, my dear
Yes I love you, my darling, my dear
