Morningtown Ride 
Performed by: Raffi
Written by: Malvina Reynolds
Album: Baby Beluga
        F  C  GA  C
INTRO:  ,  ,   ,  
C             C       F              C
Train whistle blowing makes a sleepy noise
F                C           Dm                C
Underneath their blankets go all the girls and boys
C                 C       F             C
Heading from the station, out along the bay
F             C            G A          C
All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way
C               C      F              C
Sarah's at the engine, Tony rings the bell
F               C          Dm               C
John swings the lantern to show that all is well
C                 C       F             C
Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay
C             C            G A           C
All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way
C           C       F                    C
Maybe it is raining where our train will ride
    F              C              Dm               C
But all the little travellers are snug and warm in-side
C                  C         F                  C
Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day
F                  C            G A           C
Somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles a-way
