Gary Fjellgaard Song Lyrics > Grande OldeRide

There's a train a comin
Comin thru the wilderness
A train a comin thru the wilderness
There's a train a comin
Got big wheels a hummin
A train a comin thru the wilderness

The hammers ring, the hammers pound
Twin ribbons of steel gonna lay em down
Cross the Big Plateau to a Yukon town
Twin ribbons of steel gonna lay em down

Over a hundred years ago
A line was built from coast to coast
Now were layin steel for the Iron Horse
From the 49 to the Great White North
The Yukon River hauled the ore
But the paddle wheels turn no more
So we'll snake her up to the Artic Shore
And the mighty wheels will roll
