Now i’ve been happy lately, thinking about the good things to come
And i believe it could be, something good has begun
And i believe it could be, some day it’s going to comeCause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home againNow i’ve been smiling lately, thinking about the good things to come
And i believe it could be, something good has begunOh peace train sounding louder
Glide on the peace train
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy rollerEveryone jump upon the peace train
Come on now peace trainGet your bags together, go bring your good friends too
Cause it’s getting nearer, it soon will be with youNow come and join the living, it’s not so far from you
And it’s getting nearer, soon it will all be trueNow i’ve been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is
Why must we go on hating, why can’t we live in blissCause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again
I have never … seen a Clay Bennett cartoon I didn’t like
… heard a Cat Stevens song I didn’t like
… seen a peace sign I didn’t like
… seen a peace train — but we can live in hope
Peace.
