MORNINGTOWN RIDE   Time: 4/4   Tenor: C   Bass: C

INTRO:  4,  1,  57,  1

1             *       4              1

Train whistle blowing makes a sleepy noise

4                1           2m                1

Underneath their blankets go all the girls and boys

*                 *       4             1

Heading from the station, out along the bay

4             1            57           1

All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

1               *      4              1

Sarah's at the engine, Tony rings the bell

4               1          2m               1

John swings the lantern to show that all is well

*                 *       4             1

Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay

4             1            57           1

All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

1           *       4                    1

Maybe it is raining where our train will ride

    4              1              2m               1

But all the little travellers are snug and warm in-side

1                  *         4                  1

Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day

4                  1            57           1

Somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles a-way
