Jubilee Train

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Honest John was a dirt farming man Worked everyday in his life Dust blew up and the banks closed him down He heard about a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train [Verse 2] Broadway Eddie was an uptown man Never worked a day in his life Stocks crashed down left him out in the cold He heard about a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train [Chorus] You could see the men in the Hooverville Hear the poor women cry Get on board, there's a New Deal comin' Get on board, there's a New Deal comin' Heard about a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train [Verse 3] Bеtty Jean was a factory girl Never had anothеr job in her life The factory closed down, she was out on the street She heard about a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train [Verse 4] Hometown Jimmy was a family man Lived for his children and his wife Business fell off and he lined up the bread He heard about a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train [Chorus] You could see the men in the Hooverville Hear the poor women cry Get on board, there's a New Deal comin' Get on board, there's a New Deal comin' Heard about a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train [Verse 5] There's a young boy on the side of the tracks Alone with a flag in his hand He heard the train pass by years ago He's waiting for a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train [Chorus] You could see the men in the Hooverville Hear the poor women cry Get on board, there's a New Deal comin' Get on board, there's a New Deal comin' Heard about a Jubilee Train Heard about a Jubilee Train
