Won't need to get yourself prepared
 When you're on that last train to glory
 You'll know you're reasonably there

 Maybe you ain't walked on any highway
 You've just been flyin' in the air
 But if you're on that last train to glory
 You'll know you've paid your fare

 Maybe you've been Iying down in the jailhouse
 Maybe you've been hungry and poor
 Maybe your ticket on the last train to glory
 Is the stranger whose been sleeping on your floor

 I ain't a man of constant sorrow
 I ain't seen trouble all day long
 We are only passengers on the last train to glory
 That will soon be long, long gone

 I want to hop on the last train in the station
 Won't need to get yourself prepared
 When you're on the last train to glory
 You'll know you're reasonably there
