Lyrics: I started as a cleaner back in 1939 I planned to spend me whole life just workin' up and down the line Devoted to the company 'til the driver's seat was mine I never knew that it would be me downfall I was workin' on the nightshift with nothin' much to do So, I sloped off out of the foreman's sight well really wouldn't And I came across a number four just waitin' for the crew And I clambered on the footplate like a driver I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop Wherever I go me legend follows me And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush I know I' made me mark on history Well, she hadn't got much steam up, so I filled her up with coal Release the brake, and opened the reg to make 'er role But she wouldn't budge an inch and when I heard the foreman call I left 'er where she was and ran for cover Well, the sun was just appearin' when the foreman went his rounds He was back inside a minute with a troubled sorta frown He said, "I've lost a number four have you seen one around" And I nearly filled me trousers when he asked me I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop Wherever I go me legend follows me And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush I know I' made me mark on history Well, me stoking was impeccable, the steam had risen fast With the regulator open she began to move at last And a guard fell off his bicycle when he saw her rollin' past For he couldn't see a fireman or a driver Well, she took off down the main line goin' faster by the yard But the signalman responded to a phone call from the guard Put the signals all at danger, then he cursed himself so hard There was no one on the footplate who could see them I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop Wherever I go me legend follows me And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush I know I' made me mark on history She continued on her journey through the morning countryside Collecting sets of crossing gates, she carried them with pride 'til at last they set the points to get the runaway inside And she headed for the buffers at the station Now the buffers never stood a chance, she wore them like a crown A wooden fence, foot bridge, and telegraph pole went down And then she took to the highway, and went on towards the town But she couldn't get herself to pass the chip shop I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop Wherever I go me legend follows me And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush I know I' made me mark on history Well, she entered through the side door and put herself to rest They made her safe, and then went on to find the guilt pest And it wasn't long before they tracked me down and I confessed to bein' the man that put the engine in the chip shop I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop Wherever I go me legend follows me And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush I know I' made me mark on history Done half by memory heh
Thank you!
Since the youtuber who had this video up originally privated it, I was wishing someone else would fill the niche. Good to see someone did!
yea kallum deleted everything
@@mcbenman1793Yea, sure was an asshole
@@mcbenman1793 could i ask why?
the origins of Thomas comes to Breakfest
More so the engine reminds me of James a tad . I bet this is a better idea for an episode
“James and the Chips” or something
You can't park that there, mate!
Craziest thing to happen in history I think.
Bro just turned in himself in a song.
Lyrics:
I started as a cleaner back in 1939
I planned to spend me whole life just workin' up and down the line
Devoted to the company 'til the driver's seat was mine
I never knew that it would be me downfall
I was workin' on the nightshift with nothin' much to do
So, I sloped off out of the foreman's sight well really wouldn't
And I came across a number four just waitin' for the crew
And I clambered on the footplate like a driver
I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop
Wherever I go me legend follows me
And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush
I know I' made me mark on history
Well, she hadn't got much steam up, so I filled her up with coal
Release the brake, and opened the reg to make 'er role
But she wouldn't budge an inch and when I heard the foreman call
I left 'er where she was and ran for cover
Well, the sun was just appearin' when the foreman went his rounds
He was back inside a minute with a troubled sorta frown
He said, "I've lost a number four have you seen one around"
And I nearly filled me trousers when he asked me
I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop
Wherever I go me legend follows me
And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush
I know I' made me mark on history
Well, me stoking was impeccable, the steam had risen fast
With the regulator open she began to move at last
And a guard fell off his bicycle when he saw her rollin' past
For he couldn't see a fireman or a driver
Well, she took off down the main line goin' faster by the yard
But the signalman responded to a phone call from the guard
Put the signals all at danger, then he cursed himself so hard
There was no one on the footplate who could see them
I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop
Wherever I go me legend follows me
And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush
I know I' made me mark on history
She continued on her journey through the morning countryside
Collecting sets of crossing gates, she carried them with pride
'til at last they set the points to get the runaway inside
And she headed for the buffers at the station
Now the buffers never stood a chance, she wore them like a crown
A wooden fence, foot bridge, and telegraph pole went down
And then she took to the highway, and went on towards the town
But she couldn't get herself to pass the chip shop
I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop
Wherever I go me legend follows me
And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush
I know I' made me mark on history
Well, she entered through the side door and put herself to rest
They made her safe, and then went on to find the guilt pest
And it wasn't long before they tracked me down and I confessed
to bein' the man that put the engine in the chip shop
I'm the man who put the engine in the chip shop
Wherever I go me legend follows me
And as I watch the trains go by and lean upon me brush
I know I' made me mark on history
Done half by memory heh
:) sad a fine 😢
