freedom train

It's been a long time comin' -
Now it's time to dance
By the golden thread of circumstance
You're destiny come dressed as chance
We've been a long time comin'
To this romance
Now I'm an honest man
But the time has come
And I'm a peaceful man
The peace before the storm
I think I hear my train
I think I hear my freedom train
I think I hear my freedom train
I think I hear my freedom train
I think I hear my freedom train
Now the world is changin' -
Faster than we know
In these troubled lands
Where hate dies slow
I think a train of change
Is comin' down the track
It's comin' right this way
It ain't turning back
Now I'm an honest man
With a message of hope
And I'm a peaceful man
On a slippery slope
I think I hear my train
I think I hear my freedom train
I think I hear my freedom train
I think I hear my freedom train
I think I hear my freedom train
I think I hear my freedom train
Comin' down the track
Comin' down the track
