I LOVE IT WHEN ROMANCE OCCURS ON THE RAILROAD
THE STEAMER SHE DREAMED OF TURNS UP RIGHT ON TIME
NOW STEAM IS THE WINNER
NOW STEAM'S BACK IN STYLE
MAYBE SMOKERS MIGHT RATE AN OCCASIONAL SMILE

DIESEL IS FOR UNBELIEVERS
ELECTRICITY IS WRONG
STEAM HAS GOT THE POWER THAT WILL PULL US ALONG
THERE'S A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
THERE'S A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
THE INSIDE MIGHT BE AS BLACK AS THE NIGHT
BUT THERE'S A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
THERE'S A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
THE INSIDE MIGHT BE AS BLACK AS THE NIGHT
BUT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL THERE'S A LIGHT

IT'S THE POWER OF JAMES WATT, THE STEAMING SCOT

THE MAN WHO WATCHED THE POT
AND SAID "HEY, I'VE GOT A BRILLIANT PLOT
WHEN THE STEAM IS HOT
IT SEEMS TO MAKE A LOT OF POWER"

HE SAW THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
HE SAW THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
THANKS JAMES WATT FOR WATCHING THAT POT
HE SAW THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
HE SAW THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
THE INSIDE MIGHT BE AS BLACK AS THE NIGHT
BUT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL THERE'S A LIGHT

POPPA
THERE ARE DARK DAYS AHEAD WHEN THE POWER GOES DEAD
WHEN THE OIL RUNS DRY WHAT CAN WE TRY?

BELLE
WE COULD USE THE SUNLIGHT

POPPA
BUT IT DON'T SHINE AT NIGHT

WHEN THAT ANGEL GABRIEL BLOWS HIS MAGIC TOOT
YOU SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
YOU SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
SO LET THE WATER BOIL
GOODBYE TO OIL
AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL THERE'S A LIGHT

YOU SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
YOU SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
WHEN THAT ANGEL GABRIEL BLOWS HIS MAGIC TOOT
YOU SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
YOU SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
WE SEE THE DISTANT GLEAM
THAT TELLS YOU ITS STEAM
AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL THERE'S A LIGHT

STARLIGHT!
