Chorus:

A augmentedA
There's a little black train a-comin'

A augmentedA
Set your business right

A augmentedA
There's a little black train a-comin'

And it may be here tonight

Verse:

A augmentedA
Go tell that ballroom lady

A augmentedA
All dressed in the worldly pride

A augmentedA
That death's dark train is comin'

A augmentedA  E MajorE    D MajorD   A augmentedA
Prepare to take a ride

A augmentedA
God sent to Hezekiah

A augmentedA
A majorA message from on high

A augmentedA
You'd better set your house in order

A augmentedA  E MajorE    D MajorD   A augmentedA
'For you must surely die


A augmentedA
He turned to the wall and, weeping

A augmentedA
We see him hear in tears

A augmentedA
He got his business fixed all right

A augmentedA   E MajorE    D MajorD    A augmentedA
God spared him fifteen years

There's a little black train a-comin'

A augmentedA
Set your business right

There's a little black train a-comin'

A augmentedA    E MajorE   D MajorD    A augmentedA
And it may be here tonight

A augmentedA
See that train with engine?

A augmentedA
And one small baggage car

A augmentedA
Your idle thoughts and wicked deeds

A augmentedA   E MajorE      D MajorD    A augmentedA
Will stop at the judgment bar


A augmentedA
Oh, the man in darkness

A augmentedA
Cares not for the gospel light

A augmentedA
Till he suddenly heard the whistle blow

A augmentedA     E MajorE      D MajorD    A augmentedA
With the little black train in sight

Chorus:

A augmentedA
There's a little black train a-comin'

A augmentedA
Set your business right

A augmentedA
There's a little black train a-comin'

A augmentedA    E MajorE   D MajorD   A augmentedA
And it may be here tonight
