Subway Train

My father owns a subway train And a uniform of blue; He wears a coat with shiny buttons, As policemen do. And he was the one who told me this, So I know it's true.

He said they took a great big mole That lived far underground, And when they gave him iron wheels He ran right fast, they found. On his head they put a lightning bug To show the way around.

My father has told me again and again That's how he made his subway train.
