lyrics

“Rainbow Train” -- by Carrie Dahlby and Alex Rasey

[Verse 1]
Someday we’ll ride a kitten that turns into a Thomas t-shirt
Someday we’ll ride a cloud that turns into an ice cream dessert
Someday we’ll ride a gross hair that turns into some gook [Alex: EWWWW!!!!]
Someday we’ll ride a TV that turns into a book

[Chorus 1]
And someday we’ll ride a big long Rainbow Train
That turns into a rainbow covered in some rain
And then we’ll be way up high in the sky
And catch a ride from a Rainbow Airplane coming by [Alex: whooooooosh]

[Verse 2 - extended]
Someday we’ll ride an excavator that turns into a choir
Someday we’ll ride a Mommy Milka that turns into fire
Someday we’ll ride a giant carousel going around
Someday we’ll ride train tracks that turn into arms down. [Alex: ARMS DOWN!!!] And a train is coming. [Alex: A train is coming!!!] And the lights are flashing. [Alex: Lights are flashing!!!]

[Chorus 2]
And someday we’ll ride a big long Rainbow Train
That turns into a rainbow covered in some rain
And then we’ll be way up high in the sky
And catch a ride from a Rainbow Balloon coming by [Alex: whoooooo]

[Middle 8]
Someday we’ll ride a moon that turns into a royal king
Someday we’ll ride some cheese that turns into a too old thing [Alex: TOO OLD!!!!]
Someday we’ll ride a dragon that turns into taco meals
Someday we’ll ride a parade that turns into a taxi of wheels

[Verse 3]
Someday we'll ride a parachute that turns into too many dolls
Someday we’ll ride silver that turns into a big old ball
Someday we’ll ride a sewer cap that turns into a UFO
Someday we'll ride a truck that turns into a boat.



[Chorus 3]

And someday we’ll ride a big long Rainbow Train [Alex: CHOO CHOO!!!]
That turns into a rainbow covered in some rain
And then we’ll be way up high in the sky
And catch a ride from a Rainbow Airplane coming by [Alex: Airplanes are good….]

And someday we’ll ride a big long Rainbow Train
That turns into a rainbow covered in some rain
And then we’ll be way up high in the sky
And catch a ride from a Rainbow Helicopter coming by [Alex: WAY UP HIGH IN THE SKY!!!!!!]
