[Intro] The Goodnight Train, get set to roll, She’s being shined and filled with coal. Wash the cars off with a hose, Scrub the engine’s dirty nose. Scrub-a-dub, scrub-a-dub — toot! toot! [Verse 1] All aboard, the sun is down, The Goodnight Train is leaving town. Find your sleepers, grab your teddy, Climb right up, your bed is ready. “All tucked in,” the porter cries, “Pillows fluffed, now close your eyes.” Wooooooooooo… woooooooo… [Verse 2] Wheels are turning, smoke drifts high, Painting clouds up in the sky. Huff-a-puff-a, huff-a-puff-a, choo! choo! Slumber-lumber up the hill, Cars climb slowly, slower still… Round the corner, rock the curve, Blankets bounce with every swerve. Rock-a, rock-a, rock-a, rock-a… Shhhhhhhh… shhhhhhhh… [Verse 3] Fly through a tunnel, black as ink, In and out before you blink. Dreamland — twenty winks ahead! Catch that freight train whizzing past, The Goodnight Train is moving fast. Chooooooo! chooooooo! Cars sway on the wooden track, Wheels go click, wheels go clack. Glide across a plain so flat, Gently tossed this way and that. Clickety-clack! clickety-clack! clickety-clack! [Verse 4] Curl through farms of fuzzy sheep, The sleepy train slows to a creep. Pushing toward the station light, Cars crawl on with all their might. Chug, chug, chug… “Sweet dreams ahead,” the porter sighs, The tired train can close its eyes. [Outro] Home at last, tucked in and snug, The engine snores a final chug. Hush-a, hush-a, hush-a, hush-a… sleeeeep. Goodnight, Train… goodnight.
