lyrics

1. Some get on the great train.
Some get on the freight train.
Some wait for the late train.
Some get on the can’t walk straight train,
But we’re all going to meet at that Grand Central Station
That lies down by – down by the river – the riverside of love.

2. Some get on the red train.
Some get on the blue train
Some get on the one-and-true train.
Some get on the choo-choo-choo train.
But we’re all going to meet at that Grand Central Station
That lies down by – down by the river – the riverside of love.

Chorus. Down by the riverside, the riverside, the riverside, of love.

3. Some got on the east train.
Some get on the west train.
Some think there’s just one train.
Some think theirs is the best train.
But we’re all going to meet at that Grand Central Station
That lies down by – down by the river – the riverside of love.

Middle 8. That train came from Zanzibar,
That train came from Rome.
But if you love the railways
All of us are coming home.

4. So get on board your train,
There’s one for every nation.
There are many different trains,
But there’s just one destination.
And we’re all going to meet at that Grand Central Station
That lies down by – down by the river – the riverside of love.

Chorus. Down by the riverside, the riverside, the riverside, of love.
