Song lyrics

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
Mmm 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, mmm train
Yes train, go train
Mmm train, yes train
