coming round the corner

firing on all cylinders

for the rattling of a coach

forget the snorting steam and piston stroke

from coupler flange to spindle guide

i am fascinated by engines

i'll see you tonight, on a downtown train

indefinable spell of the railway

next train's gone

oh poor old horse

over the points

the six five special

the snorting steam and piston stroke

the tracks of my tears

to sing the song o' steam

trains all night groan

turn turn turn

wheels on fire
