Lyrics[]

Verse 1:
All your friends on the railway
Would like you all to see
Just how much fun rockin' on the railway can be
So won't you come along and join them for the ride
Just hang on tight, catch your breath, and come for the ride
Chorus:
Rockin'
Rockin' on the railway
Rollin'
Rollin' on the railway
Movin'
Movin' down the line
Swingin'
Sway from side to side
They'll be rockin' an' a rollin'
Won't you come for the ride of your life
Verse 2:
Watch Duncan go, he can really rock 'n' roll, he can slip — he can slide, he can sway from side to side
So when you hear him coming and you hear his whistle blow
You'd better step aside 'cause he can go go go!
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Now we're really moving, movin' to and fro
Everyone around shouting More! More! More!
Can't get enough (2x) of these thrills
And just when you think you can't take any more
You'd better hang on tight 'cause here we go again
Slip
Slide
Come for the ride
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
Now Gordon's in a hurry 'cause Thomas made him wait
We'll have to go much faster, we really can't be late, soon the coach was rockin', it swayed from side to side, with the bath water spilling and a splashing inside
Chorus:
Rockin'
Rockin' on the railway
Rollin'
Rollin' on the railway
Movin'
Movin' down the line
Swingin'
Sway from side to side
They'll be rockin' an' a rollin' an' a reelin' on the railway tonight!
Rockin'
Rockin' on the railway
Rollin'
Rollin' on the railway
Movin'
Movin' down the line
Swingin'
Sway from side to side
They'll be rockin' an' a rollin'
Won't you come for the ride of your life
They'll be rockin' an' a rollin'
Won't you come for the ride of your life
(2x)
Outro:

Come for the ride!
