People Get Ready

People Get Ready - Curtis Mayfield

People get ready

There's a train a comin'

You don't need no baggage

You just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels hummin'

You don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord

So people get ready

There'a a train to Jordan

Picking up passengers

Coast to coast

Faith is the key

Open the doors and board them

There's hope for all

Among those loved the most

There ain't no room

For the hopeless sinner

Whom would hurt all mankind

Just to save his own

Have pity on those whose

Chances grow thinner

For there is no hiding place

Against the kingdom's throne

People get ready

There's a train a comin'

You don't need no baggage

You just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels hummin'

You don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord
