The Romantic Train

Old trains fascinate me They have character galore I got a feeling of comfort Once I stepped inside the door The smell of the real leather And the lovely suitcase racks A very romantic setting As a train rumbles down the tracks It had a special feeling As it went merrily along And my head is reeling Trying to remember the train song The magical train song That came from iron wheels The song was only sung by trains As they travelled dales and hills It was choo choo, Chug chug and chuff chuff As we looked out of sash windows The chimney stack would puff Passengers on this train Had compartments where they sat Gentlemen used walking sticks And ladies all wore hats Children all sat quietly They weren't allowed to speak They all felt very lucky To have this marvellous treat It's been lovely talking to you It's said that nothing ever lasts This old romantic train Has become a relic from the past
