Lyrics:
Train’s in the station
Won’t be stoppin’ long
Won’t be comin’ back this way
Comin’ back this way again

Don’t miss this chance
To face an’ understand the past
‘Cos the truth will set you free, my friend
Lord, Lord,
Truth will set you free my friend

Ridin’ on to Memphis
Where they killed a king
Remember that?
Derailed for a while
But now we’re back on track

Stoppin’ in Rosewood
Pickin’ up survivors

When you be ridin’
Lord, we’re ridin’ on the Freedom Train

If anybody asks you
Where I am
When they don’t see me ‘round
‘Round here anymore
Tell ‘em if they wanna find me
All they have to do is follow –
Follow they hearts an’ get onboard
Get onboard!

When you be ridin’
Ridin’ on the Freedom Train

Come on stand by me y'all

Stoppin’ in Rosewood
Pickin’ up survivors
Stoppin’ in Selma
Lord, Montgomery, too

Stoppin’ in Gainesville
Stoppin’ in Money, Mississippi
Thinkin’ ‘bout Emmett Till
Y’all remember Emmett Till

When you be ridin’
Ridin’ on the freedom train
When you be ridin’
Ridin’ on the freedom train

Come on stand by me Lord
Come on stand by me Lord
Stand by me Lord

We're ridin’ on the freedom train.

I heard this for the first time on BB King's Bluesville Sirius radio station. What a song! I'm hooked, and just became Eric's newest fan.
