There's no way that I could ever do the things it does Cradle tons of gravel and the timbers all piled up Be that as it may I still do wish that I could be- Made of rivets made of steel, And built for speed
Hey-hey, hey Hey-hey, hey I wanna be that train I wanna be that free Hang onto that track is all they'll ever ask of me Smooth heavy wheels to roll me away I wanna be that train
I'd get to see the mountains and the planes from coast to coast Many might adore me but they wouldn't get too close I'd never be that lonely 'cause my engine and caboose, Wouldn't leave me, we'd be bound Yeah, we'd be breakin' loose
Hey-hey, hey Hey-hey, hey I wanna be that train I wanna be that free Hang onto that track is all they'll ever ask of me Smooth heavy wheels to roll me away I wanna be that train
Hey-hey, hey Hey-hey, hey Hey-hey, hey Hey-hey, hey I wanna be that train I wanna be that free Hang onto that track is all they'll ever ask of me Smooth heavy wheels to roll me away I wanna be that train
