Old Locomotive
So heroic, broke up the fight
Old Locomotive
Blindfolded, punch like a knife
Offspring wandering out of sight
Set out to find
Constant pondering ways to justify

Old Locomotive
Never voted, or paid the fine
Old Locomotive
Always loaded, drank the pub dry
Offspring wandering out of sight
Set out to find
Constant pondering ways to rectify

Cold and short struck a chord
No support to endorse
Cut the air with your sword
Take it onboard
Laid off work, gone beserk
What's it worth, claiming turf
Nothing's sacred
In this earth when you're dirt

Old Locomotive
So devoted, his time arrives
Old Locomotive
Sugar coated, his last goodbye
Offspring wandering out of sight
Set out to find
Constant pondering ways to go through life
