Woo, he's watchin' the choo, Woo, he the train!
Watchin' the trains go by, the trains go by I had the ticket that I can't afford Hear old conductor holler "All Aboard!" Wonder how this world looks, outside of books
Rocky mountains, rollin' plains an' skies Passin' before my When the whistle blows toot toot, the engine goes chug And I hear bell go clang clang clang, and my gives a tug tug tug
Watchin' the go by, I'm just a small town guy Wishin' I could hurry up an' to pack Grab my gal and hop the train an' not come Instead of that I'm sitting by the track, Watchin' the go by, watchin' the trains go by!
There's a choo comin' down the track, I can almost see it's stack But it ain't no use, alas I Guess I'll always be here, watchin' the go by! Oh! how I'd love to it! ( Watchin' the trains go by! ) How I'd to hop it! Wish I had a that I can't afford ( Ho Ho Ho! ) that old conductor holler "Yes, All Aboard!" ( I often how this world looks . . . ) Like to see some traffic! ( outside of picture books . . . ) the National Geographic! mountains, rollin' plains an' desert skies ( Ho Ho Ho! ) Passin' before my When the whistle blows toot toot, the goes chug chug chug chug And I that bell go clang clang clang, and my heart a tug tug tug
I'm watchin' the trains go by, I'm just a small guy Wishin' I could hurry up an' start to my gal and hop the train an' not come back Instead of I'm sitting by the railroad track, Watchin' the trains go by, watchin' the go by! Woo, I'm watchin' the go by . . . Watchin' the trains go by . . . Woo, I'm watchin' the trains go . . . the trains go by . . .
