Lyrics

My Town:

It could have been a big town or a city
Those steam powered engines drew me in
I got to ride on the footplate of the loco
Stoke the engine with black diamonds Mr Briggs

Chorus
Oakworth calls my name whenever I am far away
To hear once more the chugging of the train

Filled to the brim our train gets to deliver
Mrs Jones’s Pies and wool straight from the mill
On to the town where Slim Jim is the Porter
Stoke the engine with black diamonds Mr Briggs

Chorus

Bridge
We drive across moorland, the route we take so neatly planned
On gleaming rails we ride, we ride


Chorus

We’re loaded now, and ready for the home run
Back to the place where we belong
Carrying wood for Mr Martin’s cabin
Stoke the engine with black diamonds Mr Briggs
