When you come to the end of your life's trolley ride
Just recall all the rails you have known
In the carbarn you'll find rest and sweet peace of mind
God's conductor won't strand you alone

As a child at half-fare, when your seat you should share
With a traveler foot-weary or old
You were earning your way on a route that would pay
In a token more worthy than gold

When you come to the end of your life's trolley ride
Just recall all the rails you have known
In the carbarn you'll find rest and sweet peace of mind
God's conductor won't strand you alone

Put your fare in the hand of the Lord's motorman
And ride on toward the end of the line
The conductor will hear as your last stop draws near
And he'll warn you in plenty of time

When you come to the end of your life's trolley ride
Just recall all the rails you have known
In the carbarn you'll find rest and sweet peace of mind
God's conductor won't strand you alone

As the click of each tie marks the years passing by
Shun all sidings of hatred and crime
You'll transfer by and by to that route in the sky
Where the streetcars will all run on time

When you come to the end of your life's trolley ride
Just recall all the rails you have known
In the carbarn you'll find rest and sweet peace of mind
God's conductor won't strand you alone
God's conductor won't strand you alone
