All aboard in montreal |
|
I heard the conductor call |
|
That old engine heaved a sigh |
|
Suitcases and shuffling feet |
|
I found my way to a windo seat |
|
I love to watch the world go by |
|
Made friends with a family |
|
Bound for sault ste marie |
|
They said good bye at sudbury junction |
|
Guess i hated to see 'em go |
|
Thought about 'em as it started to snow |
|
Time stops for nothing or no one |
|
This train keeps rollin along |
|
From here to the great beyond |
|
Black somke, pistons churn |
|
Steel rails, big wheels turn |
|
This train keeps rolling along |
|
Across the endless plrairie land |
|
Mighty buffalo used to stand |
|
The cree and the blackfoot lived and died |
|
??? the rockies, nestled in the trees, |
|
I fell in love with lake louise |
|
Smiling with her sparkling emerald eyes |
|
Soon we'll reach the sea |
|
And there i'll stand |
|
With nothing but the blue between me and japan |
|
Now i'm at the end of the line, |
|
Out of track, out of time, |
|
Conductor makes his final round |
|
All the people and places past |
|
They went by just a little too fast |
|
How i wishi could've slowed this engine down. |
|
This train keeps rollin along |
|
From here to the great beyond |
|
Black somke, pistons churn |
|
Steel rails, big wheels turn |
|
This train keeps rolling along |
