We like to be free like birds in a tree. Hallelujah time! Yes, you can hear the children singing. Hallelujah time! Yes, as they go singing by and by. Hallelujah time! Oh "hallelujah" singing in the morning. Let them sing; never let them cry. Hallelujah time! "Hallelujah" singin' in the morning.

Zion Train

Zion train is coming our way Zion train is coming our way Oh people get on board You better get on board Thank the lord, praise Fari I gotta catch this train Cause there is no other station Then you going in the same direction Zion train is coming our way Zion train is coming our way Which man can save his brothers soul Oh man it's just self control Don't gain the world and lose your soul Wisdom is better than silver and gold To the bridge Oh where there is a will There always is a way Where there is a way Where there is a will There's always a way Soul train is coming our way Zion train is coming our way Two thousand years of history Could not be wiped away so easily Two thousand years of history Black history Could not be wiped so easily Oh children Zion train is coming our way Get on board now Zion train is coming our way You got a ticket so thank the Lord Zion train is, Zion train is, Zion train is, Zion train Soul train is coming our way Soul train is coming our way
