The Polar Express by Tom Hanks Lyrics
[Conductor]
(All aboard! All aboard!
Tickets please, tickets
Well, you coming?)
[Chorus of Children]
It’s a magic carpet on a rail
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
Never takes a rest
[Chorus of Children]
Flying through the mountains and the snow
You can ride for free and join the fun (You can ride for free!)
[Chorus of Children]
If you just say yes!
Cause that’s the way things happen
On the Polar Express
[Conductor]
You bet!
Wooo wooo the whistle blows That’s the sound of her singing Ding ding the bell will ring Golly look at her go You wonder if you’ll get there soon Anybody’s guess Cause that’s the way things happen On the Polar Express
[Chorus of Children]
When we get there we’ll scream “Yes!” (Yeah)
We’ll arrive with a
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
Bang bang bang
[Chorus of Children]
Boom boom boom
Laughing all the way!
[Conductor]
It’s a choo choo with a stunning view
That rivals all the best
But you won’t see it advertised
It’s a simple fact we stay on track
Though sometimes we digress
But that can only happen on the Polar Express
[Chorus of Children]
Hiss hiss the steaming mist
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
That’s the sound of her breathing
[Chorus of Children]
Clang clang the boiler bangs
What a wonderful show!
With a comfy seat
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
And lots to eat
[Chorus of Children]
Boy it's just the best!
Wish it wouldn’t ever have to end
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
With a little luck we’ll be on time
[Chorus of Children]
There’s no need to stress
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
Cause that’s the way things happen
On the Polar Express
[Conductor]
Lights are gleaming far across the snow
You’re not dreaming
May I present the North Pole!
If it’s penguins you expect to view
You surely haven’t guessed
They all live down at the other end
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
With a little luck we’ll be on time
There’s no need to stress
Cause that’s the way things happen
On the Polar Express
[Chorus of Children]
Woo woo the whistle blows
[Conductor and Chorus of Children]
That’s the sound of her singing
[Chorus of Children]
Ding ding the bell will ring
Golly look at her go!
If you want to join us come along
[Conductor]
I’ll check my manifest
[Chorus of Children]
Cause that’s the way things happen
On the Polar Express
When we get there we’ll scream “Yes!” (Yeah)
We’ll arrive with a

Boom boom boom
Laughing all the way
