You got to give me gasoline baby

Or my engine won't go

You got to give me enough oil

Or my motor be running slow

And when you get me moving

And that big hill's getting nearer, nearer, nearer

You got to let me out easy

I said watch you don't slip on that gear

We got to keep this train a-rolling

We got to keep this train a-rolling

You got to check my fuel pump

Or my gasoline won't flow

You got to check my tires too

Or this train it just ain't gonna go

You know I come a thousand miles

And my battery's running down low

I said I need a lot of loving baby

To get me back on the road

We got to keep this train a-rolling

We got to keep this train a-rolling

We got to keep this train a-rolling

We got to keep this train a-rolling

We got to keep this train a-rolling

Down the line

We got to keep this train a-rolling

We got to keep this train a-rolling

We got to keep it rolling

Down, down, down the line
