Get on that Angel Train
And feel the joy it brings
You can start again
You get to spread your wings
Hope is free and fresh
Just like mountain air
Innocent and simple
Like a little baby’s prayer
Angel, riding on that Angel Train
Angel, riding on that Angel Train

Many’s the time
When I was all alone
And I was bringing up them babies
All on my own
I’d just work all night
And I’d just work all day
Every time I got so low down
I could hear my Angel say:

Get on that Angel Train
And feel the joy it brings
You can start again
You get to spread your wings
Hope is free and fresh
Just like mountain air
Innocent and simple
Like a little baby’s prayer
Angel, riding on that Angel Train
Angel, riding on that Angel Train

Well, men just drive you crazy
Men gonna drive you wild
Thought I was getting me a husband
I just got me another child
They’ll tell you in Kentucky
"Never give up on a dream"
Hang on ’til you get lucky
Even when it gets extreme

Get on that Angel Train
And feel the joy it brings
You can start again
You get to spread your wings
Hope is free and fresh
Just like mountain air
Innocent and simple
Like a little baby’s prayer
Angel, riding on that Angel Train
Angel, riding on that Angel Train

There’s an Angel at the throttle
Of the train I’m riding on
There’s an Angel in the moonbeam
Take me back where I belong
Angel in the doorway
I try not to stare
Angels in the kitchen
Man, there’s Angels everywhere
Angel, riding on that Angel Train
Angel, riding on that Angel Train
Angel, riding on that Angel Train
Angel, riding on that Angel Train
