Everybody's doin' a brand new dance now
(C'mon baby ride the locomotive)
I know you'll get to like it
If you give it a chance now
(C'mon baby ride the locomotive)
My little baby sister can do it with ease
It's easier than learning your ABCs
So come on, come on,
Do the locomotive with me
You swing your caboose now
Come on baby, jump, jump the track
Oh well I think you got the knack
Now that you can do it
Let's make a train now
(C'mon baby ride the locomotive) Chug-a chug-a your hips like a railway train now
(C'mon baby ride the locomotive)
Do it nice and easy now, don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
So come on, come on,
Do the locomotive with me
You swing your caboose now
Come on, come on,
Do the locomotive with me
Yeah Move around the track in a loco-motion
(C'mon baby ride the locomotive)
Do it linked together if you gotta notion
(C'mon baby ride the locomotive)
Never been a dance so a-track-tive to do
They even blow the whistle
When they're feeling blue
So come on, come on, do the locomotive with me You swing your caboose now
Come on, come on,
Do the locomotive with me
Yeah
Come on, come on,
Do the locomotive with me
You swing your caboose now

Well Done on the prompt!

I wish the US had a great rail system as they do in Europe. I remember when we did. My aunt crossed the country several times by train in the 50's and my grandmother would travel to LA from San Francisco on the "Daylight", one of the many trains that are no more.
I definitely remember this song...16 years old I took the bus to the next town to spend the night with my cousins. My uncle's rock band was playing a gig in town and this was one of the songs we danced to! So many years ago *sigh. LOL
I am rock and rolling on my chair, too lazy to get up ! We danced a lot on this song !!
I remember this song, as I grow older, I am not a fan of artiste and pop stars.
Now that really dates us, doesn't it! Great pictures to accompany the lyrics.
I love how you change up the lyrics of the songs....always so fun!
I have definitely heard this song before. I guess my favorite version of it is by Kylie Minogue from the 80s. It is such a fun song.
I have only rode a train for a short trip, but it wasn't bad. It was a school field trip when my son was in the 4th grade. The trip was only 22 miles. It starts at the Ky. Railway Museum and returns there. (Engines at both ends of the train, one leaves the depot and the other brings you back)I enjoyed the trip leaving, but the return trip I was riding backwards, so that was a bit strange.
Other than that trip my train rides have only been the ones at amusement parks or the zoo. Oh, and the Monorail at Disney World.
Anyway, I enjoyed your post. The photos were all great and tell the Locomotive story well!!
Happy Thursday!!
OH NO! Now I'll be humming that tune in my sleep tonight! :))
I remember this song...and especially a great long time friend of mine in high school. She used to do the locomotion so easily...she was my hero. I was all feet...she on the other hand would glide and make it look easy.
Love all the locomotive images.
Great song.
