There's a steam engine on the line
Won't be stopping at the gap this time
It's carrying a heavy load onto the Bye and Bye
Won't need the rail, it's guided by the light
♪
Hear that engine raw, see the wheels take flight
They'll be smelling that steam in the heavens tonight
There's something about the sound of steel on steel
It's like band of angels crying in the night
Singing Hallelujah
Singing Hallelujah

The fire box is burning bright
And the pressure in the boilers high
There's a lifetime of love floating through that steam tonight
And that regulators, holding back my tears
You see, my father drove trains on the Warrego line
And now he's sitting at the wheel for his final ride
With his mind all clear, and his smile in sight
He'll be singing with the angels tonight
Singing Hallelujah
