STEAM TRAIN A-ROLLING
I’m a steam train a rolling, down the track Over the rails I go clickety clack
Hurry, hurry, hurry to my destination Because the passengers are waiting
At the next station
The fireman’s on the footplate Putting coal on the fire
The steam pressures rising higher and higher Chuff, chuff, chuff will I make it up that hill
Woo woo goes my whistle, yes of course I will
I’m a steam train a rolling down the track Over the rails I go clickety clack
Hurry, hurry, hurry to my destination Because the passengers are waiting
At the next station

When I was two I buckled my shoe the day I went to sea I jumped aboard a pirate ship and the Captain said to me
(chorus)
When I was three I climbed a tree the day I went to sea
I jumped aboard a pirate ship and the Captain said to me

DOWN AT THE BUS STOP
Down at the bus stop early in the morning See the yellow buses standing in a row
See the bus driver starting up the engine Ding, ding, ding, ding and off we go
Down at the garage early in the morning
See the big lorries standing in a row See the lorry driver loading up the boxes
Broom, broom, broom, broom and off we go
Down at the post office early in the morning See all the post vans waiting in a row
See the postman loading all the sacks of letters Beep, beep, beep, beep, and off we go
Down at the harbour early in the morning See all the fishing boats tied up in a row See the ship's Captain pull a little lever
"Full steam ahead" he calls and off we go
Down at the airport early in the morning See the big aeroplanes all in a row
See the hostess showing how to fasten up our seat belts Speeding down the runway and off we go

And she was mistress of her trade I’ll go no more a roving with you fair maid

Then she’ll be a true love of mine

He drove it up, he drove it down, he drove it all around the town He drove it up, he drove it down, he drove it all around the town
I cannot see a place that's free, it seems they've all been taken
He said as he drove round and round with all his eggs and bacon
(chorus)
At last he found an empty space and there he chose to park it He took out what he had to sell and marched off to the market
