CHOO CHOO, BABY!


CHOO CHOO, BABY!

TIMBER MEN CUT DOWN THE TREE

DRAGGED IT TO THE ROAD

A TEAMSTER MAN HAULED IT TO THE MILL

A MILL MAN CUT IT INTO TIES


A STEEL MAN POURED THE MOLTEN LIQUID INTO FORMS

MAKING THE MILES OF RAILS

CHINESE MEN AND IRISH MEN AND BLACK MEN

POUNDED THE JOINING STAKES


OVER MOUNTAINS, RIVERS, AND DESERTS

THE RAILROAD TRACK IS BUILT

EXPECTING THE ARRIVAL OF THE TRAIN

PULLED BY AN ENGINE, BUILT BY MEN


AND A WOMAN WANTS TO BE THE ENGINEER
