Not as many are aware of this pioneering gospel singer, songwriter and recording artist as should be...IMHO! But she achieved great popularity in the 1930s and 1940s with a unique mixture of spiritual lyrics and early rock accompaniment...yes, I said "rock!" She became the first great recording star of Gospel music, surfacing on the pop charts with her 1938 original composition "This Train."
Now, I'm not sure I have the lyrics just right because these are different from her other recordings, so listen and help me out, please!! Anyway, I really, really like this version, and I hope you enjoy it, too!This Trainby Sister Rosetta Tharpehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ztB-AFpPkk&feature=relatedThis train is a free train This train This train is a free train This train This train is a free tain Everybody ride it in Jesus' name This train is a free train This train
This train have left the station This train This train have left the station This train This train have left the station This train takes on every nation This train is a free train This train
She travels straight to the upper most This train She travels straight to the upper most This train She travels straight to the upper most Nothing can ride her, but the blood-washed host Because this train is a free train This train
This train don't pull no gamblers This train This train don't pull no gamblers This train This train don't pull no gamblers No four-day's creeper, no midnight rambler Because this train is a free This train
This train don't pull no liars, This train This train don't pull no liars, This train This train don't pull no liars, no false pretenders, and no back-biter Because this train is a free train This train!!

"That sign has me all mixed up as to where we are
But if you know any "stars"
Maybe they'll give us some chocolate bars!"

Kicking off our anniversary week with a little Neil Young song..."Train Of Love"
Train of love Racing from heart to heart Running late Still in the lonely part This train will never run me down But only take me where I'm bound It's part of me and part of you I'll always be a part of you
Sail along, sail along silver moon Don't be blue Throw shadows in my room I know in time we'll meet again We come and go that way, my friend It's part of me and part of you I'll always be a part of you
"To love and honor 'til death do us part" Repeat after me This train is never going back When the lonesome whistle blows No one knows, no one knows
Train of love, Train of love Train of love, Train of love It's part of me, it's part of you Train of love!

Uh, excuse me ma'ams, but as I was looking around I didn't see one of my songs On this side of Coffee town!
Now, it is almost Valentine's Day And they say I do know a thing or two About this thing called love And I reckon that's true! "Won't you wear my ring around your neck To tell the world I'm yours, by heck Let them see your love for me And let them see by the ring around your neck!"

In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it, You'll be the grandest lady in the Easter Parade.
I'll be all in clover and when they look you over, I'll be the proudest fellow in the Easter Parade.
On the avenue, Fifth Avenue, the photographers will snap us,
And you'll find that you're in the rotogravure.
Oh, I could write a sonnet about your Easter bonnet, And of the girl I'm taking to the Easter Parade.
