Wanna ride on that backwoods train
Where everything stays the same
Where the rivers never run dry
And
there’s never a tear in your eye
And everyone
knows your name
Wanna ride on that backwoods road
Where
there’s never a heavy load
There’s no
need for a knife or a gun
Everybody loves everyone
‘Cos everybody knows the Lord
Wanna get on that backwoods plain
Where there’s never a need for rain
God’s sweet spirit makes everything grow
You can’t die and you never grow old
And there’s no such thing as pain
My only wish, my sole desire
Is that we might put out the fire
Stop
the hating and the lies
Love each other, do what’s
right
Till He comes
Wanna get on that backwoods plain
Where there’s never a need for rain
God’s sweet spirit makes everything grow
You can’t die and you never grow old
And there’s no such thing as pain
