North of the island there lives a dear old train
a little tram engine, toby is his name
he's quaint and old fashioned but careful and wise
his coach is henrietta and she's seen better days
his mind keeps returning to the good old days
when they were busy working everyday
but nobody rides with them nowadays
they can't understand why things have changed
their line is closing down today forever
[chorus 2x]
Toby oh toby, what will become of you
the world's much nicer when we see you
All of the children came to say goodbye
they clapped and cheered as toby rang his bell
the fat controller had written to say
could they please come help right away
now they're part of his family forever
