On The Evening Train Lyrics - Johnny Cash

The baby's eyes are red from weeping 

It's little heart is filled with pain 

And Daddy cried they're taking Mama 

Away from us on the evening train 

I heard the laughter at the depot 

But my tears fell like the rain 

When I saw them place that long white casket 

In the baggage coach of the evening train 

As I turned to walk away from the depot 

It seemed I heard her call my name 

Take care of baby and tell him darling 

That I'm going home on the evening train

I pray that God will give me courage 

To carry on til we meet again 

It's hard to know she's gone forever 

They're carrying her home on the evening train
