"Land of Hope and Dreams"

 
"Grab your ticket and your suitcase
Thunder's rolling down this track

Well you don't know where you're goin' now
But you know you won't be back

Well darlin' if you're weary
Lay your head upon my chest

We'll take what we can carry
Ya, and we'll leave behind the rest
 
Well, big wheels rolling through fields
Where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams
 
Well I will provide for you
Ya and I'll stand by your side

You'll need a good companion now
For this part of your ride

Ya leave behind your sorrows
Ya this day at last

Well tomorrow there'll be sunshine
And all this darkness past
 
Well, big wheels rolling through fields
Where sunlight streams
Oh meet me in a land of hope and dreams
 
Well this train
Carries saints and sinners

This train
Carries losers and winners

This train
Carries whores and gamblers

This train
Carries lost souls

 This train
Dreams will not be thwarted

This train
Faith will be rewarded

This train
Hear the steel wheels singing

This train
Bells of freedom ringing."
