Classic Series

 * The engines always think they are so clever
 * And so they like to bump the trucks around
 * They bump them in the sidings, they bump them in the yards
 * They better beware, they better take care
 * They better be on their guard...


 * (Chorus)
 * Because those Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time,
 * Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line.
 * They push them here, push them there, till they go too fast,
 * Then they push them once again, laughing while they crash...
 * Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time,
 * Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line.
 * They don't care how big they are, to them it's just a game...
 * Those Troublesome Trucks, will get them all the same


 * Diesel thinks he is so very smart,
 * Bumping all the trucks around the yard...
 * He gets them all in line, then bumps them one more time,
 * Now, he thinks that he's in charge.
 * The trucks decide to play another joke,
 * And Diesel's plans will overload in smoke...
 * He pulls and he pulls, until he breaks the chain...
 * On, on, on, he's off the rails again!


 * (Chorus)
 * Because those Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time,
 * Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line.
 * They push them here, push them there, till they go too fast,
 * Then they push them once again, laughing while they crash...
 * Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time,
 * Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line.
 * They don't care how big they are, to them it's just a game...
 * Those Troublesome Trucks, will get them all the same


 * The engines all try hard to make this stand,
 * Looking for a way to foil their plans...
 * Nothing seems to work, it just makes matters worse...
 * Trucks are also underhand.
 * They buy their time until they get their chance
 * When no-one is expecting it they pounce!
 * They push and they push until it's all too late
 * On, on, on, the trucks have won again!


 * (Chorus)
 * Because those Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time,
 * Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line.
 * They push them here, push them there, till they go too fast,
 * Then they push them once again, laughing while they crash...
 * Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time,
 * Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line.
 * They don't care how big they are, to them it's just a game...
 * Those Troublesome Trucks, will get them all the same


 * They don't care how big they are to them it's just a game...


 * Those Troublesome Trucks, will get them all the same!

Trivia

 * Two of the accidents in the video were not actually caused by trucks: These being when Thomas crashes into the barn and when Oliver crashes into the snowman.
 * An alternate shot of Percy's crash from the sixth season episode Harvey to the Rescue shows the brake van hitting the camera.
 * The scene from the third season episode, The Trouble with Mud, after a truck was pushed away by Gordon, is repeated twice.
 * The children's backing vocals are missing from the first verse of the CGI version when it is played in The Adventure Begins.
 * The shots of Thomas' and Diesel's aftermath are edited.
 * This is the fifth song to get re-released with different lyrics and footage. The first was Engine Roll Call, the second was Go, Go Thomas, the third was Working Together and the fourth was Really Useful Engine.
 * The CGI Music Video has the least amount of episodes/specials.
 * An alternate version of this song can be heard on the Thomas and the Really Brave Engines and Other Adventures VHS with the trucks laughing in the background the whole time.
