Laura is the face in the misted light
Footsteps that you hear down the hall The love that floats on a summer night That you can never quite recall Have you seen Laura on the train that is passing through Those eyes, how familiar they seem She gave your very first kiss to you That was Laura, but she's only a dream Have you seen Laura on the train that is passing through Those eyes, how familiar they seem She gave your very first kiss to you That was Laura, but she's only a dream |

We shall walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
We shall walk through the valley in peace. And if Jesus, himself, will be our savior, oh We shall walk through the valley in peace. We shall meet our fathers over there (2x) And if Jesus, himself, will be our savior, oh We shall meet with our fathers over there. We shall meet our mothers (sisters, brothers etc) Then we'll all walk through the valley of the shadow of death. |

Black girl, black girl
Don't you lie to me Tell me where did you sleep last night 'Neath the pines, 'neath the pines Where the sun never shines And I shivered in the cold, deadly cold* Her husband was a railroad man He died a half mile out of town His head was found 'neath the driving wheel But his body was never, ever found Black girl, black girl Don't you lie to me Tell me where did you sleep last night 'Neath the pines, 'neath the pines Where the sun never shines And I shivered in the cold, deadly cold* |

[Chorus]
Oh that Rock Island Line is a mighty good road, Oh that Rock Island Line is that road to ride, Oh that Rock Island Line is a mighty good road, If you want to ride, you got to ride it like you find it, Get your ticket at the station on the Rock Island Line. Jesus died to save our sins--hooray to God, We're going to meet him again! [Chorus] I may be right and I may be wrong, You are going to miss me when I'm gone! [Chorus] A, B, C, W, X, Y and Z Cats in the cupboard, but they don't see me! [Chorus] |
