Her man's been gone for nigh on a year
He was due home yesterday, but he ain't here
Her man's been gone for nigh on a year
He was due home yesterday, but he ain't here
ย
Down your street, your crying is a well-known sound
Your street is very well known throughout your town
Your town is very famous for a little girl
Whose crying can be heard all around the world
ย
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
ย
We have a remedy you'll appreciate
Don't need to be so sad, he's only late
We'll bring you flowers and things that'll pass your time
We'll give him eagle's wings so he can fly to you
ย
Fa-la la-la-la-la, Fa la-la-la la
Fa-la-la-la la-la, Fa la-la-la la
Fa-la-la-la la-la, Fa la-la-la la
Fa-la-la-la la-la, Fa la-la-la laaaah-oh
ย
We have a remedy, fa-la-la-la la-la
We have a remedy, fa-la-la-la la-la
We have a remedy, fa-la-la-la la-la
ย
We have a remedy (We have...)
Little girl, stop your crying (Stop your crying...)
Ivor the Engine Driver's gonna make you feel alright
ย
My name is Ivor, I'm an engine driver
I know him well, I know why you feel blue
Just 'cause he's late don't mean he'll never get through
ย
He told me he loved you, he ain't no liar, I ain't either
So let's have a smile for an old engine driver
So let's have a smile for an old engine driver
ย
We'll soon be home, soon be home
We'll soon, we'll soon soon soon be home
We'll soon be home, soon be home
We'll soon, we'll soon soon soon be home
We'll soon be home, we'll soon be home

Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!

I don't believe it
Do my eyes deceive me?
Am I back in your arms?
Away from all harm?
ย
It's like a dream to be with you again
It's like a dream to be with you again
ย
Badum! Badum! Badum! Badum!
Badum! Badum! Badum! Badum!
ย
I missed you, and I must admit
I kissed a few, and once did sit
On Ivor the engine driver's lap
Laid with him, and had a nap
