It's Great to be an Engine (Song)

It's Great to be an Engine is a song from the fifth season.

Lyrics
Oh yes, it's great To be an engine And go steaming along, Puff puff puffing along, Peep peep peeping along. All the people waving As you speed along. Puff puff puffing along All day.

We're all so proud to be Famous engines And travel through the countryside. We're always brave when There are hills to climb. No mountain is too high!

Oh yes it's great To be an engine And go steaming along. Puff puff puffing along, Peep peep peeping along. Fly along the rails as Your wheels go round Whiz whiz whizzing around All day.

It doesn't matter Come rain or shine. There are always things for us to do. And in the cold cold wintertime, We're ready. When you light the fire and stoke the boiler And we'll be there for you!

Oh yes it's great To be an engine And go steaming along. Puff puff puffing along, Peep peep peeping along. Feel the wind around you as you push along. Puff puff puffing along All day.

Just think - how wonderful it would be. To live on the magical Island of Sodar, Helping Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends All day long, It would be like a dream come true. If only I could be an engine too...

Oh yes it's great To be an engine And go steaming along. Puff puff puffing along, Peep peep peeping along. Fly along the rails as your Wheels go round. Whiz whiz whizzing around All day.

Oh yes it's great To be an engine And go steaming along. Puff puff puffing along, Peep peep peeping along. All the people waving As you speed along. Puff puff puffing along, Peep peep peeping and puff puff puffing steam around all day!
