Lyrics
[Verse]
Train tracks winding through the rolling hills
The Great Western Railway
Bringing thrills
From Cardiff to Swansea
Bristol to London
Jump on board
Let the adventure begin
[Verse 2]
Through valleys and mountains
We'll ride along
The engine's rhythmic beat
Like a cheerful song
Passing by castles and fields of green
Oh
The wonders of the GWR
It's a sight to be seen
[Chorus]
All aboard
Let's embrace the journey
On the Great Western Railway
Oh
How I yearn to be
From the coasts of Wales
To the bustling city lights
In each destination
A new story unfurls
Taking flight
[Verse 3]
Kings and Castles
chugging down the track
Halls and Cities rushing
They don't look back
in the yards and stations
The Panniers shunt
the Dukedogs chuff about
making the Directors Grunt
[Verse 4]
The City of Turo Races down the Line
King Edward's blue
brings a regal shine
Pendennis Castle goes to Australia Fair
Olton hall is on the movie screen
Duck and Oliver, a hell of a pair
The Great Western crew
It's a magical scene
[Chorus]
All aboard
Let's embrace the journey
On the Great Western Railway
Oh
How I yearn to be
From the coasts of Wales
To the bustling city lights
In each destination
A new story unfurls
Taking flight
[Bridge]
The Great Western Railway is the place to be
From London to Wales, there are sights to see
always on time, and never late
The Great Western Way is always Great
[bridge]
All aboard
Let's embrace the journey
On the Great Western Railway
[chorus]
All aboard
Let's embrace the journey
On the Great Western Railway
Oh
How I yearn to be
From the coasts of Wales
To the bustling city lights
In each destination
A new story unfurls
Taking flight
[outro]
Kings and Castles
Halls and Cities
Panniers and Dukedogs
Earls and Counties
always on time, and never late
The Great Western Way is always Great
