Rick Rack |
| Rick rack, rickety rack |
| See the train go along the track |
| When I grow up I want to be an engine driver |
| But if I can’t be that I’ll be a deep sea diver. |
| My father says that I must always work on the land |
| And I never disagreed when I’d see him lift his hand |
| Mother thinks that I should be a carpenter to trade |
| That I could fill my house with the things that I had made. |
| Rick rack, rickety rack |
| See the train go along the track |
| When I grow up I want to be an engine driver |
| But if I can’t be that I’ll be a deep sea diver. |
| I look at the skies, see the birds that can fly, and I feel like cryin' |
| Like a bird on the tree I just want to free so I’ll keep on tryin'. |
| Rick rack, rickety rack |
| See the train go along the track |
| When I grow up I want to be an engine driver |
| But if I can’t be that I’ll be a deep sea diver. |
| My brother says that I must pay attention at the school |
| Because I’ve never won a prize, he thinks that I’m a fool |
| Teacher always asks me why I look so far away |
| It’s just that I find nothing in the words he has to say. |
| Rick rack, rickety rack |
| I’m leaving home and I’m never coming back |
| I’m on my way to be an engine driver |
| But if I can’t be that I’ll be a deep sea diver. |
