Long ago, there was a day.
When it looked like the rails would die away,
Other machines would go farther and faster,
The steamer trains were heading for disaster!
But then with steel in their vains,
About to save the railway trains!
They worked day and night,
When they were done,
A new era had just begun!
PEOPLE STARED, IN ALL IN WONDER!
THEY WERE FAST AND SLEEK!
AND FULL OF THUNDER!
THEY FOLLOWED THE PATH,
OF SMOKE AND FIRE!
THEY WERE CALLED,
THEY WERE CALLED,
STREAMLINERS!
When it looked like the rails would not survive!
Like a phoenix rising, they came alive.
Heading down that railway line,
Was a engine made for a future time,
The Hudston,
Daylight,
(Can't hear what he said here)
Standing proud,
Better than ever!
Flying by like the western wind,
A new railroad has punctured in!
PEOPLE STARED, IN ALL IN WONDER!
THEY WERE FAST AND SLEEK!
AND FULL OF THUNDER!
THEY FOLLOWED THE PATH,
OF SMOKE AND FIRE!
THEY WERE CALLED,
THEY WERE CALLED,
STREAMLINERS!
Music plays for a while
Long ago, there was a day.
When it looked like the rails would die away,
Other machines would go farther and faster,
The steamer trains were heading for disaster!
But then with steel in their vains,
About to save the railway trains!
They worked day and night,
When they were done,
A new era had just begun!
PEOPLE STARED, IN ALL IN WONDER!
THEY WERE FAST AND SLEEK!
AND FULL OF THUNDER!
THEY FOLLOWED THE PATH,
OF SMOKE AND FIRE!
THEY WERE CALLED,
THEY WERE CALLED,
STREAMLINERS!
