Lyrics

Allegheny Train you know I can't pay
but your good will keeps on a churning
It keeps on churning
It keeps on churning just the same

Riding past Veterans in their cardboard frames
Their vacant stares cut right through the pouring rain

Allegheny Train your wheels keep on a turning, they keep on turning, they keep on turning day after day.

The Lord gives us sunshine, the Lord gives us rain
They fall on the good and the bad just the same

Allegheny Train your good will keeps on churning, it keeps on churning, It keeps on churning day after day.

You might forget the singer but don't forget the refrain. Lord I pray You'll get me back home again someday.

Allegheny Train I pray your wheels keep on a turning, that they keep turning, that they keep turning just the same.
