Lyrics

She used to be an iron horse
Twenty years ago
Used to bring the mail to me
Through the ice and snow
I sat alone and watched her

Shining in the night
Iron striking metal
The sound of racing steel

Lighting up the sky
Steaming right out pistons
See the wheels flash by
Hear the whistle blowing
Stickin’ down the track
If I’ll ever have my way
I bring the Princess back one day

She was the….
