In the early 1990s, Amtrak embarked on an advertisement campaign that gave way to the famous "There's Something About a Train That's Magic" ads. These ads featured a song sung by Richie Havens. This is that song in its entirety. Huge thanks to @theseaboardarchives on YouTube for uploading the Amtrak training tape this is from.

Lyrics:

The way you see,
the fields of grain, 
the way the rivers run,
the waves along the ocean shore.

Journeys begin again,
memories take you home.
The way we see this land of ours,
gliding across America.

There's something about a train,
that's magic!

There's something about a train,
that's magic!

The way you see,
the way you see the miles passing by,
the way you look
out on life.

Cities and mountains,
shadows across the sky.
The way we see this land of ours,
gliding across America.

There's something about a train,
that's magic!

There's something about a train,
that's magic!
All aboard...
Amtrak!

(Chorus)
Ride on down to Santa Fe,
or Philadelphia, PA.

New Orleans, Albuquerque too.
Heading on out to Kalamazoo.

Departing from Baltimore
to Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Omaha to Yuma,
zoomin' into Zuma.
If you wanna,
down to Tijuana.

Buffalo, Chicago.
Don't forget El Paso.
Toronto, Reno,
San Bernardino.
