Honest
John was a good farming man,
worked every day of his life.
Dust blew up and the
fangs cooled him down.
They heard about a jubilee train,
heard about a jubilee train.
Broadway
Eddie was an uptown man,
never worked a day in his life.
Stocks crashed down,
left him out in the cold
He heard about a jubilee train
Heard about a jubilee train
You could see the man in the
Hoover face
Hear the poor women cry
Get on board, there's a new deal comin'
Get on board,
there's a new deal comin'
Heard about a jubilee train
Heard about a jubilee train
Betty
Jean was a factory girl,
never had another job in her life
The factory closed down,
she was out on the street
She heard about a
Jubilee train, heard about a
Jubilee train
Hometown
Jimmy was a family man,
lived for his children and his wife
Business fell off and he
lined up for bread
Heard about a jubilee train
Heard about a jubilee train
You can see the men in the hoopoe bills
Hear the poor women cry
Get on board, there's a new deal to come
Get on board, there's a new deal to come
You heard about a jubilee train
Heard about a jubilee train
But there's a young boy on
the side of the tracks
Alone with a flag in his hand
He heard the train pass by years ago
He's waiting for a jubilee train
Heard about a jubilee train
You could see the men in the
Hoover fields
Hear the poor women cry
Get on board, there's a new thing coming
Get on board,
there's a new thing coming
Heard about a jubilee train
Heard about the jubilee train
Thank you very
