She sings for the Father now.😊😊😊😊
💙
She always sang for the Father! ❤
No doubt at all
Who's the daddy?
Amen
So beautifully understated and with the right priorities.
#1. She's singing on behalf of Jesus.
#2. She's preaching to audience. She doesn't even want them to clap, just to hear her message.
#3 She's emphasising the truth of the words.
#4. She's reminding her band of their holy path.
#5. She's only singing and playing -- NOT OUT OF EGO -- but as accompaniment to the spiritual meaning and purpose of the song.
I've seen all sorts of versions of this song and they all "perform", musically, with ego, and without any of #1 - #5.
And, I'm not even a Christian ... yet I can see her purity of intent.
Why aren't you a Christian? I ask sincerely.
Revelation tells us the things not permitted into the New Jerusalem. The point being that we all must be under the blood of Jesus the Lamb of God. Or we aren't clean enough
Exactly she is singing for Jesus and wants the people to hear the message
I am not a religious man...But Sister Rosetta takes me to church...sits me down...and says "Listen"
That voice is so clean & soulful; her stage craft is through the roof. Awesome, HE is most proud.
Indeed he is
She's running the whole show - the musicians behind her, the audience in front of her and BOTH of her instruments. Mastery.
The woman who practically invented rock and roll. Her legacy will live on in many forms. God bless this woman's soul.
God damn right.
Amen brother
The older I get the more I get into standardized RocknRoll.
Cap!
She's awesome. I'm so happy my 30+ daughter loves this lady and appreciates her talent. I wish the whole world would listen to her.
Betcha Elvis knew her growing up. Love this lady's heart & soul. I was born in the wrong century. Love the blues, gospel and 50s rock n roll.
Elvis was influenced by her singing style and talked about her being an influence. Little Richard was even more influenced by her singing. But she didn't play guitar like Chuck Berry until after Chuck started playing guitar that way. And she never sang songs about the teenage subculture, which is one of the defining characteristics of early rock & roll.
The Elvis movie released in May-June 2022 features Yola as Rosetta

R&R up to 1963
R&B up to mid 70s
My 28 year old daughter listens to etta James and older music too
@@michaelclark9762 however, it does have her influence
Goosebumps!
Not just a player, not just a singer, but an entertainer, as well.
Absolutely!!!
2017- Sr.Rosetta did make it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She was the "Grandmother" of rock and roll😁.
¿Y por qué tardaron tanto?....
@@patricioramirezcarmona8302 se iba a desacreditar a muchos , pero cada aporte importa y esta mujer le dio forma 🤙🏼
I could be wrong but I thought she was dubbed the godmother of rock and roll. I'd be glad to know which is correct or perhaps both are correct. Great artist either way!
That voice! Such control to pull the audience anywhere she wants them.What I would have given to see her perform live-she’s so playful!
Yeah
Come on, SIS... everyone, ANYONE... who played after the train left the station... better recognize who laid the tracks😎👍💥👆🎶✔️✨
❤️
She was so incredible. As much stage presence, magnetism and musicianship as any rockstar
Jesus has paid for my ticket to ride this train. THIS TRAIN IS BOUND FOR GLORY, THIS TRAIN IS LEAVING, GET ON BOARD; IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE!
Sister Rosetta grabs a hold of your soul and gives you a shake
I’m sure she’s singing “don’t pull no anchors”, but to me it’s “don’t pull no wankers”. Rock on, Sister!
I think she is saying 'wankers', which is not part of Woodie Guthrie's lyrics.
Wankers had a slightly different shade of meaning in the UK back then.
She's actually singing 'winkers' if you listen carefully.
@@johnhughes3796 Nice try, but it's definitely "wankers", which the British people she's singing for pronounced that way.
@@johnhughes3796 And if you look, She's winking furiously at the same time.
Not so well remembered any longer but Ms Tharpe was a monster talent.
What a voice.i mean she's a beast.thanks for posting
She's probably more appreciated by the general public in the U.S. now than since the early 1950s. She was big in Europe, as were many American Blues, R&B, and Gospel singers in the early 1960s.
So much God-given talent.
This train, for saints and sinners all alike, what a great lady, best of the best!!
i don't know if u read the lyrics or heard em right but its a clean train that's bound for Glory! it don't pull sinners so if u want to ride it u got to be clean! if u need to get clean just ask Jesus to come into ur heart and make Him the Lord of ur life!
Luke Blin think again!
You learned that lie from mainstream doctrines. That's right, mainstream Christianity teaches lies mixed with truth. Practicing sinners WILL MISS OUT ON GLORY.
@@braznartn5176 unrepentant sinners get absolutely fair exacting Justice ✝️ ♾️🔥
What makes the movement and revolution of Jesus different from all other faiths and creeds throughout all human history is that they long and seek and stretch and pull to climb the mountain to reach their Gods,try to purify themselves, wash themselves in that river Ganges.
Jesus, was God coming to us. He came down to us, to the simple, the uneducated, the poor, and He meets us right where we are, in the muck, in our most shameful sins, and that’s where He does his best work. Yes, this train is bound for glory, Hallelujah! But we are sinful, broken, humans, and we love Jesus! ❤
Wow. Never knew this song went this far back and they had a sister on the electric guitar.
They don't call her the "Godmother of Rock and Roll" for nothing.
She is rightly called the godmother of rock and roll.
She influenced an awful lot of the greats who started in the 1950s and 1960s, including using such tools as distortion.
She actually started it. Chuck Barry could’ve learned a thing or two. She was an innovator and trail blazer. God bless her
This song goes back a lot further than her. It had already been around forever when it was first recorded in the 1920s.
@@docrofo2573 She was an impressive, powerful, and very influential vocalist who sang mostly gospel songs. But she wasn't a rock & roller before Chuck Berry and the Memphis Rockabilly artists like Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, etc. were. She most assuredly did NOT invent Rock & Roll. Chuck Berry did, with a lot of help from folks like Fats Domino and New Orleans Doo-Wop, Ray Charles' proto-soul music, James Brown's "everything is a drum" mentality, Hillbilly guitar licks, and the Jump Blues of Louis Jordan, T-Bone Walker, and Elmore James [who electrified country delta blues combined with West Coast jump blues to create "West Side (Chicago)" Blues].
Listen to her early records from around 1939-1950 and they sound nothing like Rock & Roll. The music sounds more like Mahalia Jackson in the 1950s or big band numbers from the WWII era. From 1950 on she was beginning to incorporate some of the same influences that Chuck built upon, but they weren't nearly as explicitly obvious in her recordings as what Chuck was doing by 1955.
One of the primary elements of Rock & Roll is lyrics aimed at teenagers. Chuck Berry was the first to combine R&B rhythms, Hillbilly (later called "Country" music) guitar licks, and teen-targeted lyrics. Some historians even give him credit for inventing the concept of "teenagers" as a cultural phenomenon separate from "children" and "adults". Before Rock & Roll in the mid-1950s, kids were considered children all the way until they reached adulthood, having very little independence. The prosperity of the 1950s and the proliferation of automobiles among the middle class changed that. "With his instinct for the historical moment, alertness to the fads and folkways of his young fans, delight in an unprecedented American prosperity, matchless verbal facility and autobiographical recall, Berry played a major role in inventing teendom itself - in augmenting its self-awareness and turning it into a subculture." - From 'Rolling Stone' magazine following his death in 2017.
Rosetta Tharpe's singing style was adopted by some early rock & rollers (most notably Little Richard and Elvis Presley), but she did not have a guitar style similar to Chuck until the late 1950s, well after 1955 when Chuck Berry burst upon the scene with 'Maybelline' [which was a rewrite of the popular Hillbilly song 'Ida Red' with new lyrics aimed at teenagers] and followed it with a string of hit after hit from 1955 to the early 1960s. Tharpe's guitar style changed to incorporate Berry's guitar sound into her own around 1958-59.
This woman was a present from above.
Absolutely love this woman!!! She make me wanna live another day!!!
That’s why I’m here. Having health problems and she keeps me hanging on.
This woman is a legend! Let’s thank God that these songs still exist. ✝️❤️🙏🏻
Let’s thank UA-cam and its almighty algorithm.
Thanks and Praise! \o/
To sing and play with precision, power, and ease like she does here - ridiculous skill and grace, not to mention the innovation.
En 1964 je residais à Pau dans les Pyrénées Atlantiques en France et j'étais batteur dans une formation dixieland. Nous avons eu l'honneur et le plaisir d'accompagner Sister Rosetta Tharpe pour quelques morceaux. Expérience inoubliable pour nous d'être dirigé par Sister Rosetta Tharpe en personne !Sous sa direction le groupe à sonné comme jamais auparavant...
Merci Rosetta, où que tu sois, certainement au paradis pour ce moment de bonheur....
Marco,Michaud ,Gaby et les autres dont j'ai oublié les noms, merci de répondre à ce commentaire.
C'était un concert organisé à la MJC organisé par le vice président du Hot Club de France, Jacques Morgantini .
Je vous embrasse, je tape encore sur mes tambours, la passion n'a pas d'age....
This made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Wow.
I wish I could have heard her perform in person. She was the Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight of her day.
Aretha and Gladys were the Sister Rosettas of their day.
@@michaelclark9762 Yes, Sister Rosetta inspired many people.
I'm 80 years old this is my rock and roll
Cool, until the late 60s-early 70s
I was born in 1958..and knew

Although it was CALLED such
Fornications

Perhaps with some fornication
But over most kids heads
Bless her for stopping the audience from clapping along ! such a talent and the backing musicians ! great stuff !
Es un privilegio ver y escuchar cómo canta esta dama.
It's winkers, not wankers. See her wink the first time she says it.
Maybe, maybe not. British used wankers as a derogatory type of heal, who masterbates. You don't want that wanker on this train. Now compare her diction of drinkers to winkers.... She's saying Wankers. The Rolling Stones used the term for a while as a pseudonym in song writing credits, to urk a record company deal in the 70's.
OMG!! I just got hit right across the face!!! If god was speaking to anybody through music I think I just witnessed it.
yes so Amen!!!
Amen!!!!
She's looking up at the brothers and sisters up in the balcony. What an amazing woman.❤
It carries in its song the culture of struggle, joy, sadness and hope, which can only be sung in this way by those who lived in those times.
This song was older than she. It has been around much longer than the technology that allows audio recordings. It's origins are lost in the mists of time. The first recording of it was "Dis Train" recorded in 1922 by the Florida Normal and Industrial Institute Quartette at the dawn of the recording industry.
Talk about commanding the stage! And the nod at :42 to some of the top jazz musicians of the day backing her -- "OK boys, snap to!"
Song this beautiful is almost enough to make a man turn religious.
try it, doesn't get better than that.
Nick, when you give your life to Jesus, He gives you his life inside of you. Then you don't need whiskey or any other pitiful substitute for Jesus and his love. You'll have more joy and peace than you ever knew possible. He is knocking on your heart "this day". Please open it for Him.
_almost_
Jesus wasnt religious..he simply showed us how to live and love and have freedom in that.
@@etherealjustice5786Jesus was a faithful observant Jew, he kept all precepts of the Law of Moses.
Love to hear this lady play and sing, sing on in glory sweet sister!
What?
No drinkers, jokers, tobacco
chewers OR cigar smokers?!
Man! This IS a CLEAN train!
But SO black.;>
You know better than that.
This train don’t have no hatin’, this train.
This train don’t have no hatin’, this train
This train don’t have no hatin’, no kind of segregatin’
It don’t stop at that station, this train.
@@HooDatDonDar I've never seen or heard her sing that verse, but others did do one at times that said:
This train don't fit no transportation on this train
This train don't fit no transportation on this train
This train, you know, don't fit no transportation,
no Jim Crow and no discrimination
This train is bound for glory, this train
Sister Rosetta sang at my friend Terry Cryer"s wedding.
[Terry was feature photographer of the year 1957]
Famous Jazz photographer.
So here's a cool thought. We are made in God's image. Every single one of us. So if we are made in God's image clearly God likes music so I firmly believe that sister Rosetta is up there jamming with the father. Could you imagine both on their Gibsons trading riffs with the angels as backup. I think that would be pretty cool❤
This train is one i want to ride!
It would be for me, too, if it just contained ONE little extra word--"other"! This train don't contain no OTHER ramblers, gamblers, winkers, drinkers, stinkers, etc.
Shes the type of Women that commands respect from the most gangster person to the most wholesome person. She had a powerful energy and stature about her.
Wow…. Glad I stumbled upon this today. Praise the Lord !
SHE IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! I don't know if the word "FANTASTIC" really describes this BEAUTIFUL ladies voice. I have talked about her to everyone.....a LOT!! I grab my phone & show her videos. LoL
The soul...the funk...where has this been my whole life...Sister Rosetta
She is so cool and powerful.
Yes, love her singing, but I love her guitar playing even more. A virtuoso guitarist. Thank you Sister Rosetta Tharpe!
R.I.P. Sister Rosetta Tharpe
Rock In Peace 🙏
2019 and this train is still running.
Still in 2023!
@@pxn748 yeah bro...still 2023 and for the eternity....
It's running faster now in 2023.
This was the first time hearing this woman. Wow!
Grandmother of rock & roll, and bluse ,unbelivable,à great guitar player and à great singer RIP Sister Rosetta
love that she hushed the clapping lol it was taking away
She insisted that the gospel songs were gospel songs.
Audience participation not required!
We sing this so differently on the Caribbean. But it's nice to know the origin
This isn't the origin, which has been lost in the mists of time. The earliest recording of the song was in 1922 by the Florida Normal and Industrial Institute Quartette at the dawn of the recording industry. It had already been around forever at that time.
8billion people need to hear this if you know what I am saying.
Only the best guitarist of her time,incredible voice,painful,tragic,horrific life .Only the (founder,inventor,who could prevent her)pf Rock &Roll!
bob marley & the wailers did this with slighly differet lyrics lol this woman had a true gift & used it to the max great original guitarist & singer great post..
DAMN ! she just shut them all at the start !!! that´s fn' attitude !!
Happy Heavenly 109th Birthday Sister Rosetta Thorpe March 20 1915 - October 9 1973
Hallelujah. This old white guy remembers that song from long ago. Probably from the Miracle Revival Center in Cleveland Ohio.
SHE GOT A NEW 🎵 🎶 🎵 🎶 🎵 🎶 🎵 OF SOLOMON 🇺🇸 🎶 🤣 😳 😆 😍 🇺🇸 🎶 I
I would listen to her just to hear her play guitar.
"This train don't carry no liars, this train."
Every member of the maga cult should hear this song.
The godmother of rock n'roll \m/
Sister Rosetta Tharp was definitely an early influencer of Rock'n'Roll in the early 1950s.
She was a big influence on Little Richard and Elvis with her vocal style. But the way she's playing guitar in this 1960s video shows the influence of Chuck Berry and Rock & Roll on her, not the other way around.
She was an impressive, powerful, and very influential vocalist who sang mostly gospel songs. But she wasn't a rock & roller before Chuck Berry and the Memphis Rockabilly artists like Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, etc. were. She most assuredly did NOT invent Rock & Roll.

thanks for the upload. great music. I think third stanza lyrics are "no false pretenders and no back biters"
Music cannot get any better than this. God bless Sister Rosetta Tharpe. A member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Well deserved.
Elvis saw her perform in Memphis in 1954. He had to meet her. He was Godsmacked.
Little Richard was even more influenced by her in 1947 when he was a concession worker at the city auditorium in Macon, GA and she did a show there.
El cansancio, el calor de los focos, la peluca, el corset asfixiándola y ahí ella, dándolo todo.

Gran artista, gran mujer!
Beautiful
This video is absolutely gold , it should be preserved by people who loved Janis Joplin and Rock N Roll from 60’s !
This is from the 1960s. The guitar she's playing is a model that wasn't made by Gibson until 1961.
This guitar tone is a clean tone!!
wow never heard of her I Love it God bless her I know she in heaven with Jesus sing on sister🌷🌷🌹🌹♥️🙏🎼🎵🎶☺️💕
So important - totally the soul of rock and roll ! God bless.
Sister Rosseta is true pioneer the Rock And Roll!! Yeah!!
Before funk/rap
And funk, back then, and now
Meant body odor
Uh oh .... 3:42 i think she caught Mr Piano Man taking a sip on that train! 🫣🥃
You should hear the version recorded in England in 1957! She's playing by herself with only her own acoustic guitar. But the band is still on stage behind her. She introduces the song as one "we're all going to do together." She also says that if the train pulls into "your station", you have to get off and can't ride any further. As she gets to each "sin" throughout the song, one or two of the band members gets up and walks off stage. You can hear the audiences laughter each time this happens. By the end of the song she's all alone on stage. It probably was the last song of the concert.
Thanks for the lyrics - but it would also be nice to know when and where this was recorded. German TV? Late 50s?
The model of guitar she's playing was not offered by Gibson until 1961, so it's definitely sometime in the 1960s. The addition of the verse with "no wankers" in it leads me to believe her audience here may have been British, since the use of that term at that time was a very British one. Most of the live clips we have of her were recorded by the BBC on various European tours when she would play dates in Great Britain. Another clue is that the piano player shown briefly near the beginning is Otis Spann, so it would be on a tour when Otis Spann came along with the show.
UA-cam brought this to me,, never heard of her ,, I am so surprised , and amazed
Bravo Bravo!!!!! so nice my soul is burning!
Brilliant!
Sister Rossettis still singing in a heaven for all to enjoy her wonderful everything!!
I'd like to catch your train Rosetta....what a cool song!
Those smiles when crowd picks this song are something special. What a gift from God this woman was.
On repeat on the Sabbath. I love this.
This train don't pull no wankers. Love it!
Does anyone know if this is from her 1965 performance in France, or from another?
That's Otis Spann sitting at the piano near the beginning, so it was whatever tour she was on when Spann was part of the package. The guitar she's playing wasn't created by Gibson and offered for sale until 1961, so it's definitely not any of her late 1950s European tours.
A-MAZE-Zing !!! WOW. Classy, funny AND Poignantly Done.
LOVE IT !!! Thank EWE !!!
Back when singers told the truth...and took their time doing it.
Lovely! Good'ol music, where are u this days!😕😭😭😭 It's a beautify, soulful song
An American original!!!
The message never gets old..........when women were real 😢🎉🎉🎉🎉
Respect
our sister Rosetta says it best! so good!
Messed up the lyrics in the subject. "you got to get off. This train, don't pull no lairs,
no false pretenders, and not bad b.." and no back biters
This song is older than the history of musical recordings. It's origins are shrouded in the mists of time. It was first recorded in 1922 by the Florida Normal and Industrial Institute Quartette at the dawn of the phonograph record. There have been countless different versions and different verses sang and recorded since then. As such, there are no "wrong" lyrics, only various different versions of the song.
My god!!!bea❤utiful
¡ Buenísima intérprete !
Muchas gracias
My mother loved this song 🎵 ❤️.
54 yrs old rock and roller this is just awesome
internet gold. How tf did i stumble upon this.
Love this Lady and Her Music BUT I'm Prejudice as we share the Same Home Town--Cotton Plant, Ar....
How much has she been recognized there? When did that begin if she is well honored there today?
this train don't pull no wankers
fair enough too
How protestant is this song...
It would be an empty train...
Heven railway would fail!...
The true is that Jesus came for the bad guys...and that train is for the bad guy who reconize him self as a sinner and Jesus as the savior...Truly I Tell you you'll be here with me in heaven tonight! The Good news (Gospel means that) is that all who repent will get on that glorious train!
That’s why those other passengers are not there.
Every Sunday my father would play your records in which we still have his whole collection of Records❤
