And the wheels go oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh Oom-ba-lada-ada every click clack bring me closer to you Never know why I left you baby what ever did make you go It's a non-stop train that′s taking me back but it's traveling much too slow And the wheels go oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh Oom-ba-lada-ada every click clack bring me closer to you For every mile of railroad track I'm saying a little prayer Hoping that you′ll be taking me back cause I only got a one-way fare And the wheels go oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh Oom-ba-lada-ada every click clack bring me closer to you Well baby I met a lot of gals I even kissed a few But I′d trade a dreamboat full of those gals for on sweet kiss from you And the wheels go oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh Oom-ba-lada-ada every click clack bring me closer to you Baby I'll kiss my blues goodbye as soon as we kiss hello Then I′ll never want to see a train again or hear a whistle blow Or hear that oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh Oom-ba-lada-ada every click clack bring me closer to you And the wheels go oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh Oom-ba-lada-ada every click clack bring me closer to you And the wheels go oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh And the wheels go oom-ba-lada-ada click clack, click clack Oom-ba-lada-ada shh (repeat to fade)
