Thread Name: Lyr/Chords/Origin: Train on the Island
Subject: RE: Lyr origin: Train on the Island
Train on the island,hear that whistle blow,
Go and tell my true love I'm sick and I can't go.

Train on the island, headed for the west,
Me and my gal, we fell out, prob'ly for the best.

I recall Duck Donald singing this while Cathy Fink played June Apple on the banjo. I think it was on the Kissing Is A Crime album. There were a few more verses which I can't recall right now, but I'll try to look them up.
