World Cry

[Intro]
[Scatting]

[Chorus]
Roots train number one
Is coming
Reggae train number one
Is coming
Roots train number one
Is coming
Reggae train number one
Is coming

[Verse 1]
Train number one is coming
Carrying all righteous people
If you want to get onboard the train
You got to be righteous
You got to be clean
In thought, word and deed
To get onboard the train
To get onboard the train
To get onboard the train

[Chorus]
Roots train number one
Is coming
Reggae train number one
Is coming

[Verse 2]
Got to get onboard, got to get onboard
Got to get onboard
Going to a land, going to a land
Where everything is great

[Chorus]
Roots train number one
Is coming
Reggae train number one
Is coming

[Bridge]
[Scatting]

[Verse 3]
Got to get onboard, got to get onboard
Got to get onboard
Going to a land, going to a land
Where everything is great

[Chorus]
Roots train number one
Is coming
Reggae train number one
Is coming
Roots train number one
Is coming
Reggae train number one
Is coming

[Outro]
[Scatting]
