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