RAILWAY (Robert J. Purvis)


Bobby:

I sent my love in a letter I wrote her the other day

Promised I go and be there by her side very soon one day


CHORUS:

By a railway, I'll wait for my train

By a railway, I'll soon be away

By a railway, waiting to take me to the one I love


Bill:

I promised to come and there's always been something that's kept me here

But now I am free, I got no strings on me, so I'm going there


[repeat CHORUS]


[scat singing (in place of solo)]


[repeat CHORUS]


Bobby & Bill:

It's been quite awhile but I still see the smile that keeps haunting me

Now I'm standing alone in this place I call home but I'd rather be...


[repeat CHORUS]


Yeah yeah yeah (oooh)

Yeah yeah yeah (oooh)

Yeah yeah (oooh).
