by Arlo Guthrie



I want to hop on the last train in the station

Won't need to get yourself prepared

When you're on that last train to glory

You'll know you're reasonably there



Maybe you ain't walked on any highway

You've just been flyin' in the air

But if you're on that last train to glory

You'll know you've paid your fare



Maybe you've been Iying down in the jailhouse

Maybe you've been hungry and poor

Maybe your ticket on the last train to glory

Is the stranger whose been sleeping on your floor



I ain't a man of constant sorrow

I ain't seen trouble all day long

We are only passengers on the last train to glory

That will soon be long, long gone



I want to hop on the last train in the station

Won't need to get yourself prepared

When you're on the last train to glory

You'll know you're reasonably there
