Now I've been happy lately
Thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be
Something good has begun

Oh, I've been smiling lately
Dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be
Someday it's going to come

'Cause out on the edge of darkness
There rides a peace train
Oh, peace train take this country
Come take me home again

Now I've been smiling lately,
Thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be,
Something good has begun
Oh, peace train sounding louder

Glide on the peace train
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller
Everyone jump upon the peace train
Come on now, peace train

Get your bags together,
Go bring your good friends, too
'Cause it's getting nearer,
It soon will be with you

Now come and join the living,
It's not so far from you
And it's getting nearer,
Soon it will all be true
Oh, peace train sounding louder

Glide on the peace train
Come on the peace train
Peace train

Now I've been crying lately,
Thinking about the world as it is
Why must we go on hating,
Why can't we live in bliss

'Cause out on the edge of darkness,
There rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country,
Come take me home again
Oh, peace train sounding louder

Glide on the peace train
Come on the peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller
Everyone jump upon the peace train

Come on, come on, come on
Yes, come on, the peace train
Yes, it's the peace train

Come on the peace train
Oh, peace train
