about

Our first grandson, Cole, loved trains. He had all the Thomas The Train stuff and could tell you everything about each train and all the characters from the television show. His love for trains and my love for him generated this song which celebrates the sights and sounds associated with trains and travel by train.

lyrics

Chugga Chugga Choo Choo Train

Come on let's ride this train today
Hurry up, come on, without delay
Come on let's ride this train away
Double time, pick it up, no time to play

It's got a little red caboose
Cowcatcher, or maybe a moose
I trust these coach cars won't come loose

All aboard, this train is ready to go
Watch your step, take care, don't stump your toe
All aboard, can't you hear that whistle blow
Down the isle, find your seat, the very next row

The conductor will come by soon
He'll be whistling a happy tune
And announce that lunch is served at noon

Chorus

Chugga chugga choo choo train
Chugga chugga choo choo train
Coming down the tracks again, choo choo train
All aboard

Pretty soon the city is left behind
No schools, no factories, places to dine
Grain fields and cows of every kind
The numbers and colors just blow my mind

Listen to that clickety clack
Steel wheels against the track
We may just never be going back

But too soon it's over and home we go
It was a super traveling show
Could be my best ride, I think it's so
Such sights and sounds, so little dough

Goodbye Mr. Engineer
Your pride in your train is clear
For a great job let's all give a cheer

Chorus

(at end) "Moosecatcher, that's ridiculous"

William Morris (aka Lanny) Lambdin Amherst, Virginia

I grew up in a house that was always filled with music, from opera and hymns to musicals and the symphonies of the classical composers. As a consequence, my head has always been full of tunes and my song-writing has flowed from that wealth of music as well as the rock and blues I have gravitated to as an adult. My inner child stays close by, so my creations are mostly for kids - of all ages. ... more
