Lyrics

A long way to go
A long way to go
Every day, I've been moving fast
And I don't see how I'm gonna last
Every night, I'm on bended knee
I'm trying hard to find a woman who means something to me
My intuition tells me "Wait, my friend
You see, what you seek will come in time. Oooh
Shouldn't take too long
Keep the feeling strong
Just 'cause the other one did you wrong
You gotta keep moving on."
Engine, Engine No. 9
Would you save this broken heart of mine?
Engine, Engine No. 9
Heard your whistle blowing just in time
Engine, Engine
Engine, Engine
All my life is put before me
I'm getting tired of holding on for so long, girl
The warning lights and the caution signs
It tells me that love is coming soon
(Gotta save this broken heart of mine.)
Let me whisper, "climb aboard, my friend."
I've been waiting for you for quite some time
Shouldn't take too long
Keep the feeling strong
Just 'cause the other one did you wrong
You gotta keep moving on
Engine, Engine No. 9
Would you save this broken heart of mine?
Engine, Engine No. 9
Heard your whistle blowing just in time
(Blowing just in time.)
Engine, Engine No. 9
Would you save this broken heart of mine?
Engine, Engine No. 9
Heard your whistle blowing just in time
I wanna shake it on up
I wanna get down
I want a chance with you, lady, 'cause you're throwing down
Here's my message to you, so get on board
All I want is just some love
Ah, such a good girl, so let's get it up
If you're out there, listen
Won't you listen up
Talking 'bout good loving, baby
My love's the best
I'll never break your heart, girl
You know the rest
Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh
Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh
Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh
Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh
Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh
Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh
Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh-ooh-ooh
Engine, Engine No. 9-9-9-9
Engine, Engine No. 9
Would you save this broken heart of mine?
(Would you save your love for me?)
Engine, Engine No. 9, (I heard the whistle blow)
Heard your whistle blowing just in time
(And it was enough to blow your mind.)
Engine, Engine No. 9
Would you save this broken heart of mine?
(Yeah, you showed me love.)
Engine, Engine No. 9
Heard your whistle blowing just in time. (Make me wanna say)
Engine, Engine No. 9, (Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
(Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
Would you save this broken heart of mine?
(Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
(Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
Engine, Engine No. 9, (Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
(Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
Heard your whistle blowing just in time
(Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh-ooh-ooh.)
Engine, Engine No. 9, (Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
(Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
Would you save this broken heart of mine?
(Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-ooh.)
