Lyrics
Morningtown Ride
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Train whistle blowing, makes a sleepy noise
Underneath their blankets go all the girls and boys
Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away
Driver at the engine, fireman rings the bell
Sand man swings the lantern, to show that all is well
Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away
Maybe it is raining where our train will ride
All the little travellers are warm and snug inside
Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away
Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day
Somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles away
Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away
