Inspired by an A. W. Nix sermon and gifted to those who frequent Gloucester’s favourite haunts…

lyrics

The train that I ride is coming into call right here at Gloucester terminal
I thought I’d seen it all before but never did I see a more wretched hive of scum and villainy
The conductor’s calling all aboard that black diamond express to hell
He said step right on up ladies and gentlemen all you local frauds and charlatans
There’s no need for tickets this is your ride your salvation has arrived
We’re departing all aboard that black diamond express to hell
I’m sorry but did you think that was your stop well you ain’t ever getting off
Didn’t you hear me call we’re hellbound and we’re going deeper underground
I guess we’re staying all aboard that black diamond express to hell
