Lyrics
- Thomas has so many friends.
- Some fast, some tall, some slow,
- Some green, some blue, some red, some square.
- Let's see which ones you know.
- There's Bertie the Bus on his way to school.
- The children are friends too.
- For Trevor the Tractor and Harvey the Crane
- There's always work to do.
- And who's flying by?
- Why, it's Harold the Helicopter
- Way up in the air.
- Elizabeth the Lorry driving along
- Going to who knows where.
- All of our friends are there.
- Old friends, new friends
- Real friends, true friends
- We're so glad to be.
- Work friends, play friends
- Night and day friends.
- One friendly family!
- Where there's building to do, we've got friends that who
- Have many tales to tell.
- There's Alfie and Jack, those two little friends
- Who Thomas knows so well.
- And Cranky the Crane with his head in the sky
- Who can he see down there.
- It's Byron the Bulldozer, Buster the Steamroller
- Both working as a pair.
- Yes, all of our friends are there.
- Old friends, new friends
- Real friends, true friends
- We're so glad to be.
- Work friends, play friends
- Night and day friends.
- One friendly family!
- Thomas has some special friends
- You can't forget their names.
- Percy, Edward, Gordon, Emily,
- Henry, Toby, James.
- Old friends, new friends
- Real friends, true friends
- We're so glad to be.
- Work friends, play friends
- Night and day friends.
- One friendly family!
- Old friends, new friends
- Real friends, true friends
- We're so glad to be.
- Work friends, play friends
- Night and day friends.
- One friendly family!

Goofs
