[D]
[Chorus]
[D] [G]
Daddy what's a train? Is it something I can ride?
[D] [Em] [A]
Does it carry lots of grown-up folks and little kids inside?
[D] [G]
Is it bigger than our house? Well, how can I explain
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
When my little boy and girl ask me "Daddy what's a train?"
[Verse 1]
[D] [G]
When I was just a boy and living by the track
[D] [Em] [A]
Us kids would gather up the coal in big old gunnysacks
[D] [G]
Then we heard the warning sound as the train pulled into view
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
The engineer would smile and wave as she went rolling through
[Verse 2]
[D] [G]
She blew so loud and clear, we had to cover up our ears
[D] [Em] [A]
And we counted cars just as high as we could go
[D] [G]
I can almost hear the steam, those big old drivers scream
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
A sound my little kids will never know
[Chorus]
[D] [G]
Daddy what's a train? Is it something I can ride?
[D] [Em] [A]
Does it carry lots of grown-up folks and little kids inside?
[D] [G]
Is it bigger than our house? Well, how can I explain
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
When my little boy and girl ask me "Daddy what's a train?"
[Verse 3]
[D] [G]
I guess the times have changed, kids are different now
[D] [Em] [A]
Cause some don't even seem to know that milk comes from a cow
[D] [G]
My little boy can tell the names of all the baseball stars
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
I remember how we memorized the names on railroad cars
[Verse 4]
[D] [G]
The Wabash and the TP, Lackawanna, the IC
[Em] [A]
The Nickel Plate and the good old Santa Fe
[D] [G]
Just names out of the past, I guess they're fading fast
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
Every time I hear my little boy say
[Chorus]
[D] [G]
Daddy what's a train? Is it something I can ride?
[D] [Em] [A]
Does it carry lots of grown-up folks and little kids inside?
[D] [G]
Is it bigger than our house? Well, how can I explain
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
When my little boy and girl ask me "Daddy what's a train?"
[Verse 5]
[D] [G]
We climbed into the car, drove down into town
[D] [Em] [A]
Right up to the depot house, but no one was around
[D] [G]
We searched the yard together for something I could show
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
But I knew there hadn't been a train for a dozen years or so
[Verse 6]
[D] [G]
All the things I did when I was just a kid
[D] [Em] [A]
How far away those memories appear
[D] [G]
I guess it's plain to see they still mean a lot to me
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
Because my ambition was to be an engineer
[Chorus]
[D] [G]
Daddy what's a train? Is it something I can ride?
[D] [Em] [A]
Does it carry lots of grown-up folks and little kids inside?
[D] [G]
Is it bigger than our house? Well, how can I explain
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
When my little boy and girl ask me "Daddy what's a train?"
