I hear the train
In a distance
Ooh ooh
I hear the train
Getting closer
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
And I can stomp my feet to the beat of the train one, two
And I can pull my arm to the beat of the train one, two
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh

I hear the train
Through the valley
Ooh ooh

Echo through the tunnel
Uuh uh ooh
Uuh uh ooh

And I can stomp my feet to the beat of the train one, two
And I can pull my arm to the beat of the train one, two

Ooh ooh

And I can clap my hands to the beat of the train one, two
And I can lay my head to the beat of the train one, two
Ooh ooh
