Whenever I hear a train whistle blow I've got to tell you I feel kind of low Unless I've got a ticket and I can ride I want to follow the track, I've got a hunger inside Old steam engine, stay on the track Take me there and bring me back Love to see those big wheels roll Roll all over the country, it's so good for my soul May have to follow to Alaska But you can take me to a north border town Maybe he'll go south to Texas And he does, train, take me right down Maybe my baby has a notion To live on a traffic isle Well you can take me right down to the ocean And in Hawaii, I'll see baby smile Yes train, yes train Take me to the east, take me to the west Take me to the place my baby loved the best Engineer, I love to hear that whistle Mm train, I love to hear you wail Go train, I know my love will be waiting Hear now, I can hear the man call Oh yes train, go train Oh my train, mm train Yes train, go train Mm train, yes train
