It's great to be an engine
(Mike O'Donnel/Junior Campbell)

Oh, yes, it's great to be an engine
And go steaming along
Puff puff puffing along
Peep peep peeping along
All the people waving as you--speed along
Puff puff puffing along--all day

We're all so proud to be famous engines
And travel through the countryside
We're always brave when there are hills to climb
No mountain is too high

Oh, yes, it's great to be an engine
As you're steaming along
Puff puff puffing along
Peep peep peeping along
Fly along the rails--as your wheels go round
Whiz whiz whizzing around--all day

It doesn't matter come rain or shine
There's always things for us to do
And in the cold, cold wintertime
We're ready when you
Light the fire and stoke the boiler
And we'll be there for you

Oh, yes, it's great to be an engine
As you're steaming along
Puff puff puffing along
Peep peep peeping along
Feel the wind around you as you push along
Puff puff puffing along--all day

Just think . . . how wonderful it would be--to live on the magical Island of Sodor
Helping Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends--all day long
It would be like a dream come true
If only I could be an engine too

Oh, yes, it's great to be an engine
As you're steaming along
Puff puff puffing along
Peep peep peeping along
Fly along the rails as your wheels go round
Whiz whiz whizzing around--all day
Oh yes it's great to be an engine
And go steaming along
Puff puff puffing along
Peep peep peeping along
All the people waving as you--speed along
Puff puff puffing along
Peep peep peeping and 'a puff puff puffing and 'a
Steam around all day
