Lyrics
Little bus on the mountain road Swaying with the load Everybody holds the rail Up the hill we sail Hold the rail, hold the rail Up we go, never fail Hold the rail, hold the rail Dance around the bend Driver hums a tune Under the morning moon Passengers all sway Hip hip hooray Hold the rail, hold the rail Up we go, never fail Hold the rail, hold the rail Dance around the bend Left, right, left, right Round the bend in sight Left, right, left, right Horns going all night Hold the rail, hold the rail Up we go, never fail Hold the rail, hold the rail Dance around the bend Hold the rail Dance around the bend
