[Verse 1]
Train with the lonely whistle
Blowin' down the track
And oh, train with the lonely whistle
Blowin' down the track
Come on and bring your precious cargo
Bring my baby back

[Verse 2]
Train, you're huffin' and a blowin'
Because you work too fast
Listen to me train, you're huffin' and a blowin'
Because you work too fast
Don't you know that you've got to take it easy
If you wanna last?

[Verse 3]
Listen to me train, take it nice and easy
When you go 'round them curves
Do that for me
Take it nice and easy
When you go 'round the curves
Now, don't shake up my baby
And don't upset her nerves

[Verse 4]
Train, go on and blow your whistle
Blow it loud and strong
Train, go on and blow your whistle
Blow it loud and strong
'Cause I want the world to know that
Baby's comin' home
