Black Fives and shunters.
A quick reset
get
the tracks laid
pay off any debt
get more tracks laid
go loco
or build a loco'
Get steam up
pull away
and steam off.
I watched the 'Flying Scotsman'
back in sixty eight
pulling the mail train
and it never seemed to be late,
but the postman always was.
There is no weekend
when you're down to work again
them ******* have no shame and
think the weekend's one big game.
The stoker keeps on stoking
probably thinks he's woke in
some Utopian ideal.
