For embellishments just do hammer-ons the e, a, and d strings. Also, a few bass runs here and there. He doesn't quite play it the right way all throughout.

^FThere's a little black train a-coming Coming down the track ^FYou gotta ride that little black train But it ^Gain't a-gonna bring you ^Fback

You may be a barroom gambler And cheat your way through life But you can't cheat that little black train Or beat this final ride You silken barroom ladies dressed in your worldly pride

^FYou`ve got to ride that little black train ^FThat`s coming in tonight

Your million dollar fortune Your mansion glittering white

^FYou can`t take it with you When the ^Ftrain rolls in tonight

Get ready for your savior And fix your business right You`ve got to ride that little black train To make this final ride You silken barroom ladies dressed in your worldly pride

^FYou`ve got to ride that little black train That`s coming in ^Ftonight

You may be a barroom gambler Cheat your way through life

^FBut you can`t cheat that little black train Or ^Fbeat this final ride

There`s a little black train a-coming Coming down the track You`ve got to ride that little black train but it ain`t a-gonna bring you back

Woody Guthrie - Little black train
