Here we go sailin' low

Bet your mom and pop, baby, will never know

We're steppin' by the river where the woodchucks go

Down by the Yukon Railroad



When the sun come up, we go down

You can have your partner and you're foolin' around

Spendin' my time on the open ground

Down by the Yukon Railroad



You can bring a bottle and we'll drink it on the track

Baby never comin' back

Well, I can just imagine about a hundred years ago

Old Number 7, just a steamin' on to heaven

With it's twenty cars a rockin' in tow

Bringin' on the payroll



Here comes the sun now, we're havin' fun

You and me together, baby, are number one

I can feel another day's just begun

Thanks to the Yukon Railroad



You can bring a bottle and we'll drink it on the track

Baby never comin' back

Well, I can just imagine about a hundred years ago

Old Number 7, just a steamin' on to heaven

With it's twenty cars a rockin' in tow bringin' on the payroll

Yeah



Well, here we go, sailin' low

Bet your mom and pop, baby, will never know

Steppin' by the river where the woodchucks go

Down by the Yukon Railroad



Thanks to the Yukon Railroad

We love the Yukon Railroad
