I’m gonna ride that happy train when it comes rolling When it comes rocking and a-rolling down the track I found a one way ticket on the sunshine special I ain’t a-counting on coming back
I got a gal a waiting down in sunshine valley In the valley where the blues are not allowed And the sunshine special is a-rocking and a-rolling Neath a sky of blue that never has a cloud
I left the blues far behind me I’ll never worry about ‘em anymore I’m going where troubles cannot find me They’ll have a band to meet me When i pull up by the station door
When the sunshine special heads in your direction Just be waiting at the station with your pack That’s one ride you can afford when they holler all aboard It’s goodbye blues we ain’t a-coming back
