Morningtown Ride

sung by Bob McGrath

Train whistle blowin
Makes a sleepy noise
Underneath their blankets
Go all the girls and boys

Rockin', rollin', ridin'
Out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown
Many miles away

Cookie's at the engine
Maria rings the bell
Big Bird swings the lantern
To show that all is well

Rockin', rollin', ridin'
Out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown
Many miles away

Maybe it is raining
Where our train will ride
But all the little travelers
Are warm and snug inside

Rockin', rollin', ridin'
Out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown
Many miles away

Somewhere there is sunshine
Somewhere there is day
Somewhere there is Morningtown
Many miles away

Rockin', rollin', ridin'
Out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown
Many miles away

All bound for Morningtown
Many miles away
