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 speedHey-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 trainI'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' looseHey-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 trainHey-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 trainI wanna be that train
I wanna be that...
Train
