^GThere's a tiny village with its ^Emlandscape painted green ^CA firehouse, a general store, ^Gall the streets are ^Dclean ^GThe people in the village ^Emlove to hear that whistle sound And ^Cthey all wave at Jackie when the ^Dengine comes ^Garound.

^GThey say roll train ^Emroll The^C steel and all its rhythm are sweet ^Gmusic to his ^Dsoul. ^CYou'll be riding safe tonight Come ^Emhell or freezing rain The ^Cred caps got your baggage All A^Dboard!! Jac

^EmJackie never stops the train when ^Che's home all alone He ^Emkeeps her rolling round and round till ^Cmama, comes ^Dhome

^GJackie can't go out to play, the ^Emvillage needs him there ^C Every little detail of the ^Gtrain gets all his ^Dcare ^GGotta keep it rolling, ^Emgotta stay on time ^CWhen he dies they'll honor him For ^Dmiles on down the ^Gline.
