Whistle Blow

 Whistle Blow Whistle Blow

As the cannon ball begins to slow

Woe betide if the heavy breaks fail

And a carriage or two get derailed


All aboard for Dodge and New York

Where the settlers hang and money talks

The Railway line and Chugging sound

Will cover the dirt and Shake the ground


The Iron Horse Lets off Steam

Burning Coal like you've never seen

The Big Iron rolling down the track

since Eighteen Thirty no goin back


A Hundred tons of Coal to Shovel

 As the track locomotive enters the tunnel

The engineer Blast the Horn

 Heard by the Folk on the platform


Whistle Blow Whistle Blow

As the cannon ball begins to slow

Woe betide if the heavy breaks fail

And a carriage or two get derailed


For all aboard on the Train 

Will have to help it back on again

Were heading For South Carolina

To The Gold Rush city to pan like a miner


There's Gold to be found where The Railway Goes

Lots of work and heaven knows

The Saloon Girls will take Your wage

You could end up in a jail or cage


Whistle Blow Whistle Blow

As the cannon ball begins to slow

Woe betide if the heavy breaks fail

And a carriage or two get derailed



Long distance sleepers and Double Bogies

Big fat cigars and stubbed out stogies

Box car Tramps and hangers on

Bunk the train for a song


Waiting for the first ever train

Tom Thumb Loco run out of steam

Exposing people to soot and embers

The high class carriage and its members


Whistle Blow Whistle Blow

As the cannon ball begins to slow

Woe betide if the heavy breaks fail

And a carriage or two get derailed


All aboard for Dodge and New York

Where the settlers hang and money talks

The Railway line and Chugging sound

Will cover the dirt and Shake the ground


Whistle Blow Whistle Blow

As the cannon ball begins to slow

Woe betide if the heavy breaks fail

And a carriage or two get derailed


The clickety clack of Steel on Track

Heading out west and No going Back

Hoooo Hooooot Hoooo Hooooot Wooooo Wooooo Woooo Wooooo

Clickety Clack Clickety clack 

Clickety Clack Clickety clack
