Algoma Central #69

Do I hear a train?

I think that could be, huh?

That could be the Algoma Central Railway

Uh, uh, there's a train over here

I think there's another train over here

Ah, yes, one's on its way to Agawa Canyon

With all the tourists

And the other one it's, it's got all the ore

It's on its way through Searchmont, Goulais River

Hawk Junction, it's gonna go to Hawk Junction

And where is is it gonna go, Bob?

Hornepayne, it's going to Hornepayne

And, of course, final destination is Wawa

With all the iron ore they're gonna bring back to the Sault

A-one, two, three, four

She's on a bar-hopping spree

Back in Sault Saint Marie

Because of me, she's like a falling star

She would have been true

But I left her in the Sault

And traveled north upon that ACR

Let's go home and be a roamer

I made up my mind

Take me home tonight

I'll go by central #69

I was working one day

And I heard this fella say

He met my gal while drinkin' in a bar

We fought between us two

But he swore that it was true

I cursed the day I rode that ACR

Well, let's go home and be a roamer

I made up my mind

Take me home tonight

I'll go by central #69

Though it might be in vain

As I'm waitin' for the train

I hope it's not too late to right the wrong

As it's comin' 'round the bend

We'll be southbound again

Come on, old ACR ways move along

Let's go home and be a roamer

I made up my mind

Take me home tonight

I'll go by central #69

She's on a bar-hopping spree

Back in Sault Saint Marie

Because of me, she's like a falling star

She would have been true

But I left her in the Sault

And traveled north upon that ACR

Well, let's go home and be a roamer

I made up my mind

Take me home tonight

I'll go by central #69

Take me home tonight

I'll go by central #69

Here we go

Ah, yes, Wawa, Sault Saint Marie, northern Ontario
