This Train

Fun video of "This Train," a great song from the Winter collection!
We have another spiritual in the Spring session. These songs are important because they are a part of American history. "This Train" began as a spiritual and then was adapted to by Woodie Guthrie, and others, to be a folk song as well.
African American spirituals often had code words. Sometimes in reference to the underground railroad. To learn more about spirituals and their meanings click here.
