Lyrics

[00:00.00] Train whistle blowing,
[00:15.89] makes a sleepy noise;
[00:21.10] Underneath their blankets
[00:25.72] go all the girls and boys.
[00:31.25] Rocking, rolling, riding,
[00:36.50] out along the bay,
[00:42.38] All bound for Morningtown,
[00:47.46] many miles away.
[00:52.05]
[00:52.97] Driver at the engine,
[00:57.84] fireman rings the bell,
[01:02.99] Sandman swings the lantern
[01:07.53] to show that all is well.
[01:13.02] Rocking, rolling, riding
[01:17.85] out along the bay,
[01:22.78] All bound for Morningtown
[01:28.01] many miles away.
[01:32.85]
[01:33.70] Maybe it is raining
[01:38.42] where our train will ride;
[01:43.81] All the little travellers
[01:48.67] are warm and snug inside.
[01:53.27]
[01:54.62] Rocking, rolling, riding,
[01:59.50] out along the bay,
[02:04.71] All bound for Morningtown,
[02:09.61] many miles away.
[02:13.85]
[02:14.95] Somewhere there is sunshine,
[02:19.65] somewhere there is day,
[02:25.34] Somewhere there is Morningtown,
[02:30.53] many miles away.
[02:34.98]
[02:35.67] Rocking, rolling, riding,
[02:40.79] out along the bay,
[02:45.66] All bound for Morningtown,
[02:50.98] many miles away
[02:55.81]
[02:56.93] Rocking, rolling, riding,
[03:01.78] out along the bay,
[03:06.84] All bound for Morningtown,
[03:11.85] many miles away
[03:16.78]
[03:17.68] All bound for Morningtown,
[03:22.11] many miles away
