what a lovely trip
i’m feeling so fresh and alive
and i’m so glad to arrive
it’s all so grand
it’s easy to see
you don’t need a palace
to feel like alice
in wonderland
back in ohio, where i come from
i’ve done a lot of dreamin’ and i’ve traveled some
but i never thought i’d see the day
when i ever took a ride on the santa fe
i would lean across my windowsill
and hear the whistle echoin’ across the hill
then i’d watch the lights till they’d fade away
on the atchison, topeka, and the santa fe
what a thrill
what a great big wonderful thrill
with the whistle singin’ “westward ho”
right from the day i heard it start
‘cross the kansas plains to new mexico
i guess i’ve got a little gypsy in my heart
when i’m old and gray and settled down
if i ever get a chance to sneak away from town
then i’ll spend my busman’s holiday
on the atchison, topeka, and the santa fe
all aboard, all aboard
here she comes
whoo whoo whoo whoo hoo
i can’t believe we’re here at last
[citizens]
when you go traveling it’s best for you
on the atchison, topeka, and the santa fe
[susan]
i can’t believe that anything could go so fast
when you pull that throttle, whistle blows
a huffin’ and a puffin’ and away she goes
all aboard for cal-i-for-ni-ay
on the atchison
on the atchison, topeka
on the atchison, topeka, and
on the atchison, topeka, and the santa fe
