I steam, i blow, i toot
Chuckling, huffing, puffing
Fire inside me
Hot as burning coal
Over parallel rails, i ride
Through dark tunnels, i ride
Under ramping bridges, i ride
Chuckling
I steam, i blow, i toot
Carrying generations inside me
Trusted with delivery
Fulfiling my natural responsibility
Knowing
Failure brings devastating outcome
Satisfact of service is the only reward
Time is not a factor than the destination
Fire burning inside me
Heat supply like burning coal
Energy is not a matter
Heat is what i thrive by
Delivering masses to the masses is my nature
Operations fulfiled by the nature of the steam train
