Little Engines

Little Engines is a song from the sixth season.

Lyrics

 * Main Line Engines always boast how big they are,
 * Superior by far.
 * But Little Engines toil away from dawn to dusk,
 * Without a fuss or care.


 * Just because we're small, doesn't mean we don't stand tall,
 * And we pull our weight like all the others do.
 * You'll be surprised, in spite of our size,
 * Just what little engines can do!

Chorus:
 * Little Engines, Little Engines,
 * Little Engines can do the biggest things.
 * Little Engines, Little Engines,
 * Little Engines can do most anything.


 * They'll carry on until the work is over,
 * They'll carry on 'til the end,
 * They're the smallest in the station, don't underestimate them,
 * They're not such little engines after all.


 * Bigger engines say, little engines play all day,
 * And we're not much use to anyone at all.
 * But we're strong enough, to deal with those trucks,
 * That's what little engines are for!

Chorus:
 * Little Engines, Little Engines,
 * Little Engines can do the biggest things.
 * Little Engines, Little Engines,
 * Little Engines can do most anything.


 * They'll carry on until the work is over,
 * They'll carry on 'til the end,
 * They're the smallest in the station, don't underestimate them,
 * They're not such little engines after all.


 * Thomas, Percy, Bill & Ben,
 * You can rely on them,
 * These little engines are the best!
 * Stepney, Duck and Oliver,
 * They'll give the trucks, what for?
 * You'll be so impressed.

Chorus:
 * Little...
 * Engines, Little Engines,
 * Little Engines can do the biggest things.
 * Little Engines, Little Engines,
 * Little Engines can do most anything.


 * They'll carry on until the work is over,
 * They'll carry on 'til the end,
 * They're the smallest in the station, don't underestimate them,
 * 'Cause they're not little engines after all.


 * They're our favourite little engines,
 * They're mighty little engines!
 * They're not such little engines after all!
 * They're not such...little engines after all!
