Richie Havens
Peace train
Now I’ve been happy lately, thinking about the good
Things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun
Oh I’ve been smiling lately, dreaming about the world
As one
And I believe it could be, some day its going to come
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace
Train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home
Again
Now I’ve been smiling lately, thinking about the good
Things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun
Oh peace train sounding louder
Glide on the peace train
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller
Everyone jump upon the peace train
Come on now peace train
Get your bags together, go bring your good friends too
Cause its getting nearer, it soon will be with you
Now come and join the living, its not so far from you
And its getting nearer, soon it will all be true
Now I’ve been crying lately, thinking about the world
As it is
Why must we go on hating, why can't we live in bliss
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace
Train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home
Again
