Freight Train

Dark in the night
Freight train running
First signs of light
She'll be coming
Rhythmically moving
Pulsating the track
Keeping in tempo
No holding back
Free as a bird
Wild as a horse
Steam train rolling
Keeping on course
Nothing can stop her
She glides through the night
A gallant lady under a moon so bright
Giving all she's got till her final destination
Eight miles ahead til the next railway station
This important job
he must complete
Tomorrow , again, she will repeat
Pushing along
Swiftly she goes
Blows her whistle
Coming to a close
Her wheels on steel
Pulsating the rails
Slowing , so slowly
This lady prevails
Speed is descending
As she comes to her end
Then another station
She needs to attend.
