Womack, Lee Ann - Orphan Train Lyrics
Come all you broken hearted, come and lay your burden down
Come kings and queens, come royalty surrender up your crown
Come empty-handed come with nothing of your own to claim
Come naked, poor, come like a child to ride the orphan train
Come ride, ride on the orphan train
Put your ear to the track, you can hear your name
Come ride, ride on the orphan train, it'll take you all the way home
The way is narrow, it is steep that brings you to the door
But love awaits there to embrace your heart forevermore
[Repeat Chorus]
Come you abandoned, you forsaken
Friendless and alone, come refugees left homesick for
Some place you've never known
No more or less than God's beloved child aboard this train
[Repeat Chorus twice]
It'll take you all the way home
It's gonna take you all the way home

Womack, Lee Ann Orphan Train Comments
Great song!
i love this song and the history behind it, i wish more people learned about this part of our history
My Grandmother was an Orphan Train child that was adopted in Indiana. My great grandmother went to the train station with her friend who was to pickup a little girl off the Orphan train but her friend wound up backing out. My great grandmother couldn't see that little girl stay on the train and who knows where she'd wind up! So she claimed her. Granny had a wonderful childhood. Great grandpa accepted her as his own. She was well loved by all! I miss her.
