It's Gonna be a Great Day (also known as Special Day ) is a song from the 2013 special, King of the Railway .
Lyrics
Rock and roll, click-clack
Steaming down the track
The fun just never ends
Every day's a good good day
For Thomas and his friends
Steady, steady, steady
Everybody's getting ready
The Steam Team leads the way
It's a very special day
It's getting better and better
Now everybody say hey!
It's gonna be a great day
Rocking and a rolling, they're riding the rails
In the noon day light
Shunting and a hauling freight
They don't wanna be late
They wanna do what's right
Weesh-Weesh, Whoo-Whoo
They know what they have to do
They are a useful crew
It's a very special day
It's getting better and better
Now everybody say hey!
It's gonna be a great day
Weesh, Weesh, Whoo-Whoo
They know what they have to do
They are a useful crew
It's a very special day
It's getting better and better
Now everybody say hey!
It's gonna be a great day
Now it's a very special day
It's getting better and better
Now everybody say hey!
It's gonna be a great day
It's a very special day
It's getting better and better
Now everybody say hey!
It's gonna be a great day
It's gonna be a great day

Trivia
The original version was slightly different than the final:
The arrangement is slightly different and longer.
"Rock and roll, click-clack. Steaming down the track" and "Every day's a good good day" were "Chugga-chugga, click-clack. Rolling down the track" and "Something big is on the way."
Joe Phillips sang the whole song, rather than Blewitt with other singers.
Auto-tune appears to be used in this version.
A deleted scene shows Sir Robert Norramby applauding to Jack and Thomas for saving Stephen.
In the K.NET Korean version of King of the Railway , it plays the instrumental version.
