Verse 1:
Down in the valley where the wildflowers grow,
Lives a little green engine with a heart full of glow,
Chuggin’ and puffin’ through the sun and the rain,
Karl is his name, rollin’ down the track again!

Chorus:
🎶 Karl, Karl, the brave little tank,
Painted in green with a stripe so swank!
He toots his whistle with a smile so wide,
Steam in his stack and his friends by his side! 🎶

Verse 2:
He hauls the mail and the farmer’s hay,
He helps lost puppies find their way,
From morning light to the evening star,
You’ll always hear, “Here comes Karl, not far!”

Chorus:
🎶 Karl, Karl, the brave little tank,
Painted in green with a stripe so swank!
He toots his whistle with a smile so wide,
Steam in his stack and his friends by his side! 🎶

Bridge:
When the tracks are blocked or the storm clouds roll,
Karl keeps going, he's got one goal—
To help and cheer, with a chuff and a grin,
No job too big for the engine within!

Final Chorus:
🎶 Karl, Karl, the hero we know,
Through hills and tunnels, fast or slow.
With courage strong and a can-do heart,
Karl’s the engine who sets things a-start! 🎶

Outro:
So if you hear a whistle in the breeze,
And feel a rumble through the trees,
It’s Karl the tank engine, brave and small—
The mightiest green engine of them all!

Karl the Green Tank Engine

Lyrics:  My life has gone up and down, and I don’t know where I am—but I’ll try to find you. You changed my life. Karl’s Railway was always there. My whole world was Karl. When I almost lost my life, Karl was still there. Through everything, Karl remained. That meant more than words can say.

And if you feel like saying rude things about Karl, He won't go away from my head, Cuz I will always remember, For what he has done for me in my life, If it wasn't for Karl I don't think I happy as much as I am, and let's all sing along

My life has gone up and down, and I don’t know where I am—but I’ll try to find you. You changed my life. Karl’s Railway was always there. My whole world was Karl. When I almost lost my life, Karl was still there. Through everything, Karl remained. That meant more than words can say

My life has gone up and down, and I don’t know where I am—but I’ll try to find you. You changed my life. Karl’s Railway was always there. My whole world was Karl. When I almost lost my life, Karl was still there. Through everything, Karl remained. That meant more than words can say

Karl's Railway

Lyrics: Verse 1
Down the track she flies so true,
Ashbury proud with steam anew.
Built with fire, forged with pride,
Rolling onward, side by side.

Chorus
Ashbury rolls, strong and free,
The heart of the line, our company.
With Ashford’s hand to guide the way,
The rails will shine both night and day.

Verse 2
Men remember, years gone past,
When iron met the steam at last.
Now with Ashford at the fore,
Ashbury runs forevermore.

The Ashford Way

[Verse 1]
Well Karl’s a steamer, puffin’ all night long,
Six big drivers, rollin’ strong.
Ruston’s a diesel, hummin’ low,
Four wheels down, ready to go.

[Chorus]
Ohhh Karl and Ruston, side by side,
One’s blowin’ smoke, one’s ridin’ glide.
Ohhh Karl and Ruston, hear that sound,
Green trains boogie, shakin’ the ground.

[Verse 2]
Karl’s got a whistle, loud and proud,
Ruston just rumbles, smooth not loud.
Clickety-clack, down the line,
Two green engines, right on time.

[Chorus]
Ohhh Karl and Ruston, roll on through,
Steam and diesel, nothin’ new.
Ohhh Karl and Ruston, hear them say,
“We’re the green machines of the railway!”

[Bridge – call & response style]
Karl goes choo-choo! (choo-choo!)
Ruston goes grrr-grrr! (grrr-grrr!)
Together they roll (together they roll)
Down the track so true!

[Final Chorus / Outro]
Ohhh Karl and Ruston, what a team,
Rolling together like a railroad dream.
Yeah Karl and Ruston, hear that song,
Two green engines, boogie all night long!
