Down There By The Train Lyrics - American Recordings - Johnny Cash

There's a place I know where the train goes slow 

Where the sinner can be washed in the blood of the lamb 

There's a river by the trestle down by sinner's grove 

Down where the willow and the dogwood grow 

You can hear the whistle, you can hear the bell 

From the halls of heaven to the gates of hell 

And there's room for the forsaken if you're there on time 

You'll be washed of all your sins and all of your crimes 

If you're down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there where the train goes slow

There's a golden moon that shines up through the mist 

And I know that your name can be on that list 

There's no eye for an eye, there's no tooth for a tooth 

I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth 

They were down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there where the train goes slow 

If you've lost all your hope, if you've lost all your faith 

I know you will be cared for and I know you will be safe 

And all of the shameful and all of the wheres 

Even the soldier who pierced the heart of the Lord 

Is down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there where the train goes slow

Well, I've never asked forgiveness, never said a prayer 

I've never given of myself, never truly cared 

And I've left the ones who loved me and I'm still raising Cain 

I've taken the low road and if you've done the same 

Meet me down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there by the train 

Down there where the train goes slow
