At twelve he met his true love

There was smoke upon the water

Diesel on the breeze

Down the iron gangway
Down into the noise
G
Down beside his destiny
C G
Beside his pride and joy
CHORUS:
C G
And he keeps us rolling
D G
Keeps us rolling on

And the engines singing
D Em
Their siren song

And he keeps us rolling

Keeps us rolling on

Listens to those engines sing

Their siren song

Years upon the ocean
C G
Upon the lakes and seas
Down below the water line

Their thunder up and down

And he heard their finest whisper
C G
And he understood their sound

The oil and the steel
Speaks to his perfection of

His mechanized idyll

Like they did beside the Zuider Zee

So many years ago
