Lyrics

 * North of the Town, there lives a dear old train,
 * A little steam engine, Old Puffer Pete is his name.
 * He's quaint and old fashioned, but careful and wise.
 * His coach is Henrietta and she’s seen better days.


 * His mind keeps returning to the good old days
 * When they were busy working everyday.
 * But nobody rides with them nowadays.
 * They can't understand why things have changed.
 * Their line is closing down today, forever.


 * Old Puffer Pete, oh Old Puffer Pete,
 * What will become of you?
 * The world's much nicer whenever we see you.


 * Old Puffer Pete, dear Old Puffer Pete,
 * There's still lots that you can do
 * Oldies but Goldies, we still care about you.


 * All of the children came to say goodbye
 * They clapped and cheered as Old Puffer Pete whistled, “Bye bye.”
 * Everyone was sad to see them go
 * Whatever will they do, and where will they go?


 * Suddenly news came to brighten up their day
 * How Old Puffer Pete and Henrietta were needed right away
 * Vee had written to say
 * Could they please come and help right away.
 * Now they're part of her family, forever.


 * Old Puffer Pete, oh Old Puffer Pete,
 * Show them what you can do
 * The world's much nicer whenever we see you.


 * Old Puffer Pete, dear Old Puffer Pete,
 * There's so much to learn from you.
 * Oldies but Goldies, we still care about you.


 * Oldies but Goldies, we still care for you.
