Curtis Mayfield People Get Ready Lyrics

People Get Ready Lyrics

People get ready

There's a train a commin' 

U don't need no baggage 

U just get on board 

All U need is faith

To hear the diesels hummin'

U don't need no ticket 

U 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 pitty 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 commin' 

U don't need no baggage 

U just get on board 

All U need is faith

To hear the diesels hummin'

U don't need no ticket 

U just thank the lord
