Monkey And The Engineer

Once upon a time there as an engineer
 Drove a locomotive both far and near
 Accompanied by a monkey that would sit on a stool
 Watching everything the engineer would do
 One day the engineer wanted a bite to eat
 He left the monkey sitting on the driver's seat
 The monkey pulled the throttle. the locomotive jumped the gun
 And did 80 miles an hour down the mainline run
 Big locomotive right on time, big locomotive coming down the line
 Big locomotive No 99. left the engineer with a worried mind
 The engineer called up the dispatcher on the phone,
 To tell him all about his locomotive was gone
 Dispatcher got on the wire, switch operator to the right
 Cause the. monkey's got the main line sewed up tight
 The switch operator got the message on time,
 Said there's a northbound livin on the same main line
 Open up the switch I'm gonna let him through the hole
 Cause the monkeys got the locomotive under control
 Big locomotive right on time big locomotive coming down the line
 Big locomotive no 99 left the engineer with a worried mind.
