Steam train goes so fast
Goes so far away
I hear that engine sing
Listen to what it say
Gonna get me on that track
Get on board some day
Hear that whistle blow
She cry out in the night
See the flame light a smokestack
Such a beautiful sight
She tell's me she going somewhere
And everything going to be alright
Steam train blues
She's in the distance now
But I still hear her piston roar
She's in the distance now
But I still hear her piston roar
At these days I will be honest-
Ain't coming back no more
Steam train blues
