The Great Northern

THE GREAT NORTHERN

Part I

INTRO
She’s the train they call the Great Northern

VERSE
She’s sitting down in the station with dreams of every kind
Heading for Montana she’ll be riding on the HiLine

VERSE
Through the prairie underneath an endless sky
Over the mountains across the Great Divide

VERSE
The journey has begun when you hear that whistle blow
There’s room for everyone when the Great Northern rolls

Part II

VERSE
Can you hear her whistle blowing
She’s keeping time, keeping time, now it’s time to go

VERSE
Can you feel her wheels turning
Down the line, down the line, westward they churn

VERSE
Just look out your window
You can see for miles, see for miles, on and on it goes

VERSE
And smell that sweet grass growing
On this train through paradise the bounties overflowing

(Repeat Part I)
