Orange Blossom Special, the Wabash Cannonball, the Chattanooga ChooChoo, this hobo's seen 'em all
I've watched the Sante Fe lay her smoke against the sky and listen to old
number three rollin' through the night

Chorus:
Ride the train Ride the train
Anywhere I'm going I ride trains
Sleepin' in a boxcar when it rains
Ride the train, ride the train

Southern Pacific, the Overland Express and up ahead the coal cars of West
Virginia's best
And Oklahoma's Frisco, the biggest one of all
I've listened to the Silver Steed's lonesome midnight call

Chorus

Ride the train Trains
