She used to be an iron horse twenty years ago |
|
Used to bring the mail to me through the ice and snow |
|
I sat alone and watched her steaming through the night |
|
Ninety tons of thunder riding up the sky |
|
She was the princess of the night, go |
|
We saw the writing on the wall |
|
She was the princess of the night |
|
I'd take a ride across the sky |
|
Speeding sparks like lightning, engine working hard |
|
Furnace at the footplate shining in the night |
|
Iron striking metal the sound of racing steel |
|
It's all I ever wanna hear, it's music to my ears |
|
She was the princess of the night |
|
We saw the writing on the wall |
|
She was the princess of the night, go |
|
I'd take a ride across the sky |
|
She was the princess of the night |
|
We saw the writing on the wall |
|
She was the princess of the night |
|
I'd take a ride across |
|
Ninety tons of thunder riding up the sky |
|
Steaming red hot pistons see the wheels flash by |
|
Hear the whistle blowing steaming down the track |
|
If I ever had my way I'd bring the princess back one day |
|
She was the princess of the night |
|
We saw the writing on the wall |
|
She was the princess of the night |
|
I'd take a ride across the sky, sky, sky, sky |
