Lyrics
[verse]
Iron wheels are turning, can't be turned around
Engine's screaming louder than the station sound
Every soul on board is racing toward the end
Nobody remembers how to stop or bend
[chorus]
Locomotive fever, burning down the line
Nobody can slow it, nobody stops in time
Locomotive fever, driving through the night
Running out of track before the morning light
[verse]
Conductor's lost the brakes somewhere down the track
Every station passes, there's no turning back
Passengers keep screaming for a way to slow
But the engine only knows a single way to go
[chorus]
Locomotive fever, burning down the line
Nobody can slow it, nobody stops in time
Locomotive fever, driving through the night
Running out of track before the morning light
[bridge]
Somebody find the lever, somebody pull it hard
Before the rails run out and leave us in the yard
Too many wheels turning, too much steam to spare
Locomotive fever running everywhere
[chorus]
Locomotive fever, burning down the line
Nobody can slow it, nobody stops in time
Locomotive fever, driving through the night
Running out of track before the morning light
