Like a locomotive Comin’ down the line Ground starts to tremble Gonna make you mine.
So I said to the drivers Get the coal to burn Can start to feel the traction Then I start to yearn.
Such a wild sensation Seems by design My loco imagination Working overtime.
A Number One is the only one To successfully ride on Number Nine But you give your kiss to me And I’ll be the Emperor of the North A Number One.
Just like a locomotive Let’s keep a rhythm going.
Go ahead.. [Big Al guitar solo]
Just close your eyes and we’re off again. This line won’t make another stop It’s so well synchronized It’s time to take this to the top. Now, open up your eyes.
It’s like a locomotive Let’s keep a rhythm going. Just you and me baby Let’s take this rhythm home Let’s take this rhythm home.
Let’s take a ride on the Reading.
Ride, ride, ride on. Ride, ride, ride on.
It’s gonna take the New York Central To get this whole job done.
