Jackie`s Train Lyrics

Jackie`s Train lyrics





There's a tiny village with its landscape painted green

A firehouse, a general store, all the streets are clean

The people at the depot love to hear that whistle sound

And they all wave at Jackie when the engine comes around.



He says roll train roll

The steel and all its rhythm

are sweet music to his soul.

You'll be riding safe tonight

Come hell or freezing rain

The red caps got your baggage

All Aboard!! Jackies Train



A cow strays from the meadow

She's stranded on the track

Jackie's fingers lift her up

Then gently put her back

the train chugs on down the line

Through the kitchen and the den

Disappearing under Jackies bed

And back to town again.



Yes its Roll train Roll

The steel and all its rhythm

are sweet music to his soul.

You'll be riding safe tonight

Come hell or freezing rain

The red caps got your baggage

All aboard! Jackies train



Jackie never stops the train when he's home all alone

He keeps her rolling round and round till mama, comes home



Jackie can't go out to play, the village needs him there

Every little detail of the train gets all his care

Gotta keep it rolling, gotta stay on time

When he dies they'll honor him

For miles on down the line.



Yes its Roll train Roll

The steel and all its rhythm

are sweet music to his soul.

You'll be riding safe tonight

Come hell or freezing rain

The red caps got your baggage
