[Verse]
A#
With a steady hand on the lever
D# F
And the signal ready to pass
D# Dm
Keep the light burning, fireman
D# F
And the water, well up in the glass
[Verse]
A#
With a shoulder to the rail
D# F
There's no better place to be
A# D#
Than the right side of the footplate
F A#
When you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
D# F A# D# F
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
D# A# Cm F
Voices that echo and ring down the line
D# F A# D# F
One load to shed, then homeward we tread
D# A# F A# D#
Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
[Verse]
A#
Me granddaddy worked in the railway
D# F
F bigwig, so I've heard talk
D# Dm
Me father, he was a driver
D# F
Travelling pit to port
[Verse]
A#
And there's no better life for a young man
D# F
With them you must agree
A# D#
When you're right side of the footplate
F A#
And you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
D# F A# D# F
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
D# A# Cm F
Voices that echo and ring down the line
D# F A# D# F
One load to shed, then homeward we tread
D# A# F A# D#
Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
[Verse]
A#
Tomorrow it's off up to Banbury
D# F
F lodging turn for me
D# Dm
Where I can lay me head on a pillow
D# F
In a room where I can sleep
[Verse]
A#
And it's up and away in the morning
D# F
And wipe the clock-face clean
A# D#
And you're right side of the footplate
F A#
And you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
D# F A# D# F
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
D# A# Cm F
Voices that echo and ring down the line

One load to shed, then homeward we tread

Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
[Verse]
A#
So pick up yer traps and yer Tommy-box
D# F
We're reaching the end of the line
D# Dm
Keep yer eye on your watch, lad
D# F
We'll bring her in on time
[Verse]
A#
And it could have been life on the dole queue
D# F
Or mining for coal at the seam
A# D#
But you're right side of the footplate
F A#
And you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
D# F A# D# F
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
D# A# Cm F
Voices that echo and ring down the line
D# F A# D# F
One load to shed, then homeward we tread
D# A# F A# D# F A#
Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
