LIFE IS LIKE A TRAIN DRIVER
In life you're like a train driver
Ready just to drive.
In life you'll have your ups and downs
You'll learn just to survive
You start there at the station
Waiting for the whistle to be blown.
The green lights there ahead of you
Until you're fully grown
You've started going forward
There is no going back.
The route is set ahead of you
Just like the railway track.
Like junctions, there's decisions
Which you will have to take.
Once you decide which way to go
This life you'll have to make.
Like troubles there are tunnels
I know that this is true.
You need to make the right choice now
You need to struggle through.
For just around the corner
The way that lifes track bends.
There will be a stop block
And that's where lifes journey ends.
