Cat Stevens, "Peace Train"
Misheard Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Now I been happy lately
Thinkin' about the good things to come
And I believe it could be
Something good has begun
[Verse 3]
'Cause I'm on the edge of darkness
There rides the peace train
Oh, peace train take this country
Come take me home again
[Chorus]
Oh, peace train soundin' louder
I love the peace train
Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah
Come on the peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller
Everyone jump up on the peace train
Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah
Come on, now peace train
[Verse 4]
Yeah pack your bags together
Come, bring your good friends too
Our cause is gettin' nearer
It soon will be with you
[Bridge]
Now, come and join the livin'
It's got support from you
And it's gettin' nearer
Soon it will all be true
Now I been happy lately
Thinkin' about the good things to come
And I believe it could be
Something good has begun
[Verse 3]
'Cause I'm on the edge of darkness
There rides the peace train
Oh, peace train take this country
Come take me home again
[Chorus]
Oh, peace train soundin' louder
I love the peace train
Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah
Come on the peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller
Everyone jump up on the peace train
Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah
Come on, now peace train

Yeah pack your bags together
Come, bring your good friends too
Our cause is gettin' nearer
It soon will be with you
[Bridge]
Now, come and join the livin'
It's got support from you
And it's gettin' nearer
Soon it will all be true
Original Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Now I've been happy lately
Thinkin' about the good things to come
And I believe it could be
Something good has begun
[Verse 3]
'Cause out on the edge of darkness
There rides the peace train
Oh, peace train take this country
Come take me home again
[Chorus]
Oh, peace train soundin' louder
Glide on the peace train
Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah
Come on, now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller
Everyone jump upon the peace train
Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah
Come on, now peace train
[Verse 4]
Get your bags together
Go bring your good friends, too
Because it's gettin' nearer
It soon will be with you

It's not so far from you
And it's gettin' nearer
Soon it will all be true
Now I've been happy lately
Thinkin' about the good things to come
And I believe it could be
Something good has begun

'Cause out on the edge of darkness
There rides the peace train
Oh, peace train take this country
Come take me home again
