Here comes the freedom lyrics Merle Haggard

Here comes the freedom

All aboard America here comes the freedon train

All aboard America here comes the freedon train

The freedom train is rolling down two hundred years of track

Two hundred years of glory never to turn back

The train is called America your ticket is a dream

That left the torture of freedom for all the world to see

She left the station in Lexington in 1776

And rode to Philadelphia where the liberty bell was fixed

George Washington was the engineer John Adams shovelled coal

And Franklin punched the tickets Tom Jefferson added soul

All aboard America here comes the freedon train

She rode to New Orleans the battle of 1812

With old Hickory at the throttle she drove the British out

The freedom train's a fine train the toppest of world it seemed

Her whistle blows for the liberty with a mighty head of steam

Wheels of fortune sweaty Pittsburg rolled across the Mississipp'

From Texas to Misoury to one real exciting trip

Then bang of track was broken smashed by a cannonball

That blew in great divided will the nation stand or fall

All aboard America here comes the freedon train

Will Annistage stepped into the cab and the wheels began to roll

Freedom train must never stop Republic never fall

To the bloody fields of Gettysburg the tear show in his eyes

She drove the train with fury the freedom train survive

Again the train rode westward to California shores

To the deserts and prairies even stronger than before

From Atlantic to Pacific she drove the rail with pride

She travelled a track to glory with the good Lord on her side

All aboard America here comes the freedon train

There's much more to this story like Wilson and Roosevelt

They left the train to Truman who stoked it mighty well

Then old Dwight D Eisenhower or LBJ we sing

Two brothers known as Kennedy and Martin Luther King

And still the train rolls forward over history's rugged trail

Straightin' by the journey and the land beneath her rail

And you and I roll along and stroke the freedom fire

For we stand to all Americans hold old honor can't be hired

All aboard America here comes the freedon train
