Angel On a Train Lyrics

Angel on a train

When I was young I grew up Maine

Shot a man at 17

20 years later. I'd done my time

Traveling home on the rock island line

Feeling kind of funny feeling kind of strange. No idea. There was an angel on the train

I went to the restroom and all the wall was riding in shock. God loves you all

All of a sudden the words relieved my pain, but I didn't know was an angel on the train

Started feeling

Started to glow

There was an angel on the train

A preacher behind me. He said look to the sky. Let your arms reach out

Angel on the train, it's gonna help you out

I turned toward the preacher and said, what do you mean

To my surprise, he couldn't be seen

I heard the wheels turning underneath the floor

Then I saw an angel standing by the door

As I looked down

Started to rain

Then I knew an angel was on the train

Well, I looked to the sky

And there was God

He looked down and gave me a nod

He said son, you're gonna be all right

You're in heaven's arms again tonight

Went to the restroom and all the wall was riding in shock. God loves you all

All of a sudden the words relieved my pain, but I didn't know

Was an angel on the train

There was an angel on the train

There was an angel on the train
