I was just a child of ten |
|
When I was told a train was comin' |
|
Engine of steel, spirit of lightning |
|
Heart of fire a place for me |
|
I knew that's where I wanted to be |
|
Ride this train |
|
When I was a boy of sixteen |
|
Fire in my eyes and filled with dreams |
|
I took my place upon that train |
|
I wanted nothing more than to pull that chain |
|
And hear that whistle calling my name |
|
Ride this train |
|
I'm gonna ride this train through the streets of heaven |
|
No side tracks I'm on the main line yeah |
|
I'm gonna ride this train |
|
I'm gonna ride this train |
|
Well look out cause it's leaving the station |
|
Look out people from every nation |
|
It's gathering steam |
|
Yeah, it's gathering steam |
|
Hear that whistle blow! |
|
Hear that whistle blow!! |
|
Rails of life divide this land |
|
Get ready cause it's leavin' yeah! |
