### Gustave Bugs

Narrator: "Spike and Pipsqueak enjoy working in the docks. They like the sea air and the sound of the gulls.

But one day, the friends were feeling hot and bothered. A griffon was causing trouble. His name was Gustave, and this was his first day at the docks."

Gustave: "Y'all are useless little bugs!"

Narrator: "He called from above."

Gustave: "If you put these boxes on the inside lines, then I wouldn't have that much far to travel!"

Spike: "Rubbish!"

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Spike: "No griffon has ever complained before."

Gustave: "Well, I'm complaining now!"

Narrator: "And Gustave banged his load down on the keyside.

Later, the two animals met Big Macintosh and Cranky, and told them about Gustave."

Big Macintosh: "Griffons are hairy fairy things, they need a lot of attention, like me, in fact."

Narrator: "Said Big Mac."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "You should see the situation from Gustave's point of view."

Narrator: "Huffed Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "He's high up in the air, coping with wind, rain, and baking sun, then he looks down and sees that you two little animals being annoying! No wonder he calls you 'bugs'."

Narrator: "When Gustave heard that the big animals agreed with him, he grew bossier still."

Gustave: "Come on, come on! Push those boxes closer to me!"

Narrator: "But Pipsqueak was too upset to concentrate, and pushed the boxes too far." (Gustave drops his load on Pipsqueak) "Poor Pipsqueak.

Then, Gustave played a trick on Spike."

Gustave: "Push your boxes onto the outside line! It's easier for me to load up!"

Narrator: "So Spike did.

But Gustave left the loads beside the boxes, not in them."

Gustave: "You must have known I can't reach you there!"

Narrator: "Complained Gustave. This mix-up caused confusion and delay.

Hoity Toity was most upset."

Hoity Toity: "Spike and Pipsqueak, this new griffon has an important job to do. I have heard you have not been helping him today. You will go to your homes and consider how you will improve yourselves tomorrow."

Narrator: "Now, Spike and Pipsqueak were upset too.

That evening, a big storm raged across the land.

Gustave and the animals were trapped at the docks."

Soarin: "We're sure to be safe in this shed."

Narrator: "Said Soarin.

But he was wrong.

The animals had no idea they were about to be put in great danger by an old tramp steamer. It was out of control, and running aground, straight into the sheds!"

Gustave: "AAAAH!" (Falls over)

Filthy Rich, Big Macintosh, Cranky Doodle Donkey and Soarin: "Help!"

Narrator: "Called the animals from inside the shed."

Gustave: "I can't!"

Narrator: "Called Gustave.

When the storm was over, Hoity Toity rushed to the scene of the destruction."

Hoity Toity: "Spike and Pipsqueak will help you."

Narrator: "He called to Gustave."

Hoity Toity: "And then you can help the animals."

Gustave: "Oh god, please, hurry!"

Narrator: "Cried Gustave."

Gustave: "And tell them I'm very sorry I was rude to them!"

Hoity Toity: "So it was you!"

Narrator: "Murmured Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "I owe those animals an big apology."

Narrator: "Spike and Pipsqueak soon came to the rescue.

And it wasn't too long before Gustave was upright again, and clearing the wreckage.

At last, all the animals were free."

Big Macintosh: "Oh, thank you."

Narrator: "Said Big Mac."

Big Macintosh: "What would I have done without you?"

Gustave: "Well, I had to be rescued before I could help you.

But I never thought it be by a couple of bu... bu..."

Narrator: "Gustave was about to say 'bugs', but he quickly corrected himself."

Gustave: "Uh, small animals, thank you. I'll never be rude again. However, you two mites are in my way, so move over!"

Pipsqueak: "Pah!"

Narrator: "Said Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "He's back to bugging us!"

Spike: "Don't move! You're still attached to Gustave!"

Narrator: "But it was too late." (Gustave falls over)

"Gustave still looks down on the two little animals, but ever since that stormy night, he never calls them 'bugs' or 'mites', because he knows they might bite back."

### Princess Celestia's Birthday Party

Narrator: "One summer's day, Spike and Pipsqueak were idling in the station when Angel the rabbit arrived."

Angel: "Have you noticed something?"

Spike: "What sort of something?"

Narrator: "Asked Spike."

Angel: "Hoity Toity. He, well, seems different."

Narrator: "Replied Angel."

Pipsqueak: "I did see him staring at the clouds this morning."

Narrator: "Said Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "I wonder why."

Narrator: "The reason was simple. It was Princess Celestia's birthday, and Hoity Toity had a new outfit."

Princess Celestia: "It's perfect for my birthday party."

Narrator: "She said."

Princess Celestia: "You'll look splendid, Hoity dear."

Hoity Toity: "And I'll wear my finest hat just for you."

Narrator: "He replied."

Hoity Toity: "Your birthday is a great occasion."

Princess Celestia: "It is. So don't be late."

Hoity Toity: "Don't worry, my dear. I shall be spic-and-span and right on time!"

Narrator: "Later that day, Hoity Toity had changed into his new suit."

Stationmaster: "You look fine, sir."

Narrator: "Said the stationmaster."

Stationmaster: "You'd best be going."

Hoity Toity: "Indeed."

Narrator: "Agreed Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "The animals are busy. I'll take the car."

Stationmaster: "Is it reliable?"

Narrator: "Asked the stationmaster."

Hoity Toity: "Certainly."

Narrator: "Said Hoity Toity.

But is wasn't. As he sped up along, he suddenly saw a large hole in the road. He braked hard, but it was too late."

Hoity Toity: "Bother! Now I've got a puncture. If I change my wheel, I am sure to dirty my suit and that would never do."

Narrator: "Just then, he heard Zecora."

Hoity Toity: "I have to attend Princess Celestia's birthday party and I cannot be late. Please give me a lift."

Zecora: "I'll try my best, sir."

Narrator: "But Zecora didn't like going fast."

Zecora: "I'm hot. My body will overheat."

Narrator: "And it did."

Zecora: "Told you so."

Narrator: "Said Zecora sadly."

Hoity Toity: "Bother, bother."

Narrator: "Then heard a loud whistle. It was Score the pegasus pony. Score was cross when he was Zecora."

Score: "Call yourself a zebra? You're a disgrace to the road. Find yourself a scrapyard."

Narrator: "Zecora spluttered in fury. Score's driver was more polite."

Score's Driver: "Can I be of assistance, sir?"

Hoity Toity: "Only if you can get me to Princess Celestia's birthday party."

Narrator: "Sighed Hoity Toity."

Score's Driver: "We can take you to Spike."

Narrator: "Replied the driver."

Score's Driver: "He just down the road."

Hoity Toity: "Much obliged."

Narrator: "And they rumbled away."

Zecora: "But what about me?"

Narrator: "Wailed Zecora."

Hoity Toity: "I'll send for help."

Narrator: "Called Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "Stay there."

Zecora: "That's all I can do."

Narrator: "Score was enjoying flying along the lane, but not Hoity Toity. Oil splashed everywhere. Worse was to follow."

Score: "Help!"

Narrator: "Cried Score."

Score: "Something's snapped!"

Narrator: "He veered out of control, and Hoity Toity landed in a muddy ditch close to where Spike was having a drink."

Hoity Toity: "Bother, bother!"

Narrator: "Spike had never seen Hoity Toity in such a mess."

Spike's Driver: "Can I help you, sir?"

Narrator: "Asked Spike's driver."

Hoity Toity: "Yes, please. Get me to the station as fast as your can."

Spike's Driver: "I'm afraid our fireman's been taken ill."

Hoity Toity: "Then I'll be your fireman."

Narrator: "Spike was excited. Hoity Toity had to work hard. Dust and smoke flew everywhere.

At last they reached the station. Hoity Toity looked at the clock."

Hoity Toity: "Just in time."

Narrator: "He gasped. He hurriedly picked up a huge bunch of flowers."

Spike: "Good luck!"

Narrator: "Called Spike.

Princess Celestia was waiting for him. As the clock struck three, there stood Hoity Toity, tired but triumphant. He gave her the flowers."

Princess Celestia: "Well, thank you, my dear. I knew this was my special birthday party, but I didn't know it was fancy dress!"

Narrator: "Everyone laughed, and then the party began."

### Double Teething Troubles

Narrator: "Snips and Snails the unicorns work in the clay mines and quarries on Shining Armour's route. Their work is important, but it can be hot and dirty. Sometimes, this makes the unicorns naughty.

One morning, they were feeling very naughty indeed."

Snips: "That's my line of changelings!"

Narrator: "Huffed Snips."

Snails: "It's not! It's mine!"

Narrator: "Snorted Snails."

Snails: "Your's is over there!"

Snips: "S'mine!"

Snails: "S'not!"

Snips: "S'mine!"

Snails: "S'not!"

Narrator: "Their friend, Fancy Pants was worried."

Fancy Pants: "Stop quarreling you two or the only thing you'll have left to share is..."

(Snips and Snails walk forward and bump into each other)

Fancy Pants: "Trouble!"

Snips: "Silly!"

Narrator: "Snapped Snips."

Snails: "Silly yourself!"

Narrator: "Grumbled Snails."

Hoity Toity: "Snips and Snails behave yourselves!"

Narrator: "Said Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "It's clear to me that we need another horse to help out. There is only one available. His name is Trouble Shoes, and he's keen to make an impression."

Fancy Pants: "If I were you,"

Narrator: "Whispered Fancy Pants."

Fancy Pants: "I'd get back to work right away."

Narrator: "Meanwhile, Hoity Toity was having doubts about his own decision."

Hoity Toity: "I hope Trouble Shoes doesn't cause even more confusion. He's bound to have teething troubles."

Narrator: "And he was right."

Trouble Shoes: "Oh, my hooves and tail! I was unexpecting this hill.

Oh, what's that?"

(Trouble Shoes falls down)

Narrator: "Fancy Pants came to the rescue."

Trouble Shoes: "Sorry."

Narrator: "Said Trouble Shoes."

Trouble Shoes: "I'm all hot and bothered. I've got teething troubles, you know."

Narrator: "The news soon spread."

Spike: "Apparently it's teething troubles."

Narrator: "Confided Spike to Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "Hey, you two. Trouble Shoes' got a tooth ache. Good luck."

Snips: "What does Pipsqueak want to wish us good luck?"

Narrator: "Asked Snips."

Snails: "Because he knows we'll need it. A horse with a tooth ache must be the worst horse of all."

Narrator: "Then their manager spoke to them."

Manager: "You will take your loads to the docks and rest there tonight. There's a lot of hard work to do tomorrow."

Narrator: "It was dark when the unicorns reached the docks. They left the changelings by the key and scurried off to the house."

Soarin: "You two look glum."

Narrator: "Sighed Soarin."

Snips: "It's Trouble Shoes' fault."

Narrator: "Replied Snips."

Snips: "He's got a tooth ache."

Soarin: "He hasn't got a tooth ache. He's got teething troubles. That means he's new and this causes him some problems. In his case, it's his hooves."

Narrator: "Next morning, the unicorns heard an unfamiliar sound."

Snips and Snails: "Oh no! It's Trouble Shoes!"

Narrator: "And it was."

Trouble Shoes: "Hello. I'll soon sort these changelings out. You take the front and I'll push from behind. Ha, ha. What fun."

Narrator: "All went well as they set off.

Then they came to a hill."

Snails: "Come on, come on! Push harder you silly horse!"

Narrator: "Shouted Snails. But Trouble Shoes couldn't push any harder."

Trouble Shoes: "I'm falling down again."

(Trouble Shoes falls down)

Trouble Shoes' Driver: My God, This Is A Joke!!!!

Snips: "Oh, pah!"

Narrator: "Snorted Snips."

Driver: "You know what?"

Narrator: "Sighed the driver."

Driver: "Let's try and finish the journey anyway. It means we'll have to pull Trouble Shoes as well. Can you do it unicorns?"

Snips and Snails: "We'll try, sir."

Narrator: "And sure enough, they could.

That night, Hoity Toity came to see them."

Hoity Toity: "Well done Snips and Snails! I've sent Trouble Shoes back to the works. Can you manage alone?"

Snips and Snails: "Oh, yes sir."

Snips: "Fancy Pants,"

Narrator: "Whispered Snips."

Snips: "I'm sorry we were rude to you."

Snails: "And."

Narrator: "Added Snails."

Snails: "Trouble Shoes was really quite friendly."

Soarin: "And you know what friends do?"

Narrator: "Murmured Soarin."

Snips and Snails: "No, what?"

Soarin: "They always say 'Good Night' to each other."

Narrator: "And so they did, but they still chattered about Trouble Shoes and his teething troubles all night long."

### Spike, Pipsqueak and Matilda

Narrator: "Spike, Pipsqueak and Cranky were looking at the early morning sky."

Spike: "Everyone's so much happier when springtime comes."

Narrator: "Said Spike happily."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Everyone except for Hoity Toity."

Narrator: "Grumbled Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "He seems to be working us harder that ever. I'm tire of these coastal runs."

Pipsqueak: "He just wants everything to be ready for the holidays."

Narrator: "Replied Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "Anyway, salty air makes me all cheerful in my body."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Pah!"

Narrator: "Snorted Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "It's the countryside that really gets me fired up, it's the only place to be!"

Narrator: "And he puffed away to collect his fuel drums from the docks.

Spike and Pipsqueak had to take some changelings to the scrap yards.

In a siding, they saw an old donkey. She looked very sad."

Pipsqueak: "What are you doing here?"

Matilda: "My name is Matilda, but they told me I wasn't useful anymore. Now I only have mice for company."

Spike: "Well, you may be dusty, but you look in perfect shape."

Narrator: "The yard manager appeared."

Yard Manager: "Come along, I have changelings for you to take away."

Pipsqueak's Driver: "Excuse me,"

Narrator: "Said Pipsqueak's Driver,"

Pipsqueak's Driver: "Can you tell us about this donkey?"

Yard Manager: "Matilda; she's been here for years. She'll be broken up when we find the time."

Narrator: "The animals were most dismayed."

Spike: "We'll try and help you."

Narrator: "Said Spike. But he didn't know how.

Meanwhile, Cranky was enjoying himself."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "This is the life!"

Narrator: "He chortled, but he was heading for trouble. One of the fuel drums was leaking, just then, it suddenly caught fire."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Oh, help!"

Narrator: "Cried Cranky.

They reached a siding as his driver gave the alarm."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "It's fuel, and it's dangerous."

Narrator: "As Spike and Pipsqueak approached the junction, they saw the smoke, and a guard waving a red flag."

Guard: "Sparks from Cranky have set the drums a horrible blaze."

Narrator: "He called."

Guard: "The fire's under control, but it's quite a fucking mess."

Pipsqueak: "You said the countryside run got you all 'fired up', Cranky."

Narrator: "Said Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "But I didn't think you meant it in this way."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Pah!"

Narrator: "Snorted Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "It was the dumbass drums' fault, not mine."

Fireman: "It's safe to proceed now."

Narrator: "Called a fireman.

Spike and Pipsqueak now felt sorry for Cranky.

It wasn't long before they reached the station.

Later, as they were having a long drink, they suddenly heard a commotion."

Spike: "What's the matter?"

Narrator: "Spike asked."

Spike's Driver: "It's another fire at the Workmen's hut."

Narrator: "Replied Spike's driver."

Spike's Driver: "We better see what we can do."

Narrator: "The fire engines had a big problem."

Fireman: "We are completely out of water!"

Narrator: "Cried a fireman."

Fireman: "We can't use sea water cause it clogs our works. We'll just have to let that building burn."

Narrator: "Then Spike had an idea."

Spike: "Why don't you use the water in our bodies? We've just refilled them."

Narrator: "The firemen wasted no time."

Spike and Pipsqueak's Drivers: "You're very clever animals."

Narrator: "Chuckled their drivers.

Soon, the fire was out, but the hut where the workmen lived was destructed."

Foreman: "The men can't sleep on the beach."

Narrator: "Said the foreman."

Pipsqueak: "What about Matilda? She would be perfect for the workmen."

Spike: "Comfy, too."

Narrator: "Added Spike."

Pipsqueak's Driver: "What a good idea, Pipsqueak."

Narrator: "Said his driver.

They phoned Hoity Toity, who agreed."

Hoity Toity: "She'll be spic and span by the time you collect her."

Narrator: "And she was, and very happy too."

Matilda: "I can't ever thank you enough. I feel splendid."

Narrator: "The animals took her hooves, and she set off for her new home.

Everyone agreed there was nothing old or slow about Matilda, and she will always be really useful indeed."

### Busy Going Backwards

Narrator: "Tank the Tortoise was feeling sad. Everywhere he looked, he could see animals moving steadily forwards. They all looked confident and cheerful.

One day, he decided to talk to Dr. Hooves the Earth Pony."

Tank: "I'm always going backwards, Mr. Hooves. I have forward thinking views. I could be a leader, if you know what I mean."

Big Macintosh: "You can't be a leader without a line to follow you. You don't have a line."

Narrator: "Big Macintosh said. Tank felt sadder still. Dr. Hooves wanted to help."

Dr. Hooves: "You're a very useful tortoise, Tank. You help me stop, and you keep my changelings in order when we go down hills."

Tank: "I know, Mr. Hooves. But it would be so excited to go forwards for a change instead of always seeing things sliding away from me."

Narrator: "The changelings were cross with Tank."

Changelings: "Who's he to start complaining? He's lucky to be able to look after us. Let's teach him a lesson!"

Narrator: "The changelings decided to carry out their plain when they reached Big Mac's hill.

When they were nearly at the top, they played their tricks."

Changelings: "Ready, steady, go!"

Narrator: "And they judged at a rope, which farted."

(Rope breaks)

Changelings: "We're making your wish come true, Tank!

Follow the leader!"

Narrator: "Yelled the changelings. Tank was still in a state of shock, so he didn't know what to think. And he couldn't ask the conductor, he had jumped clear."

Changelings: "Faster, faster! As fast as you want!"

Narrator: "Screamed the changelings.

Suddenly, Tank found it fun. But the fun was soon over. A crossing lay ahead, and the gates were closed. Tank couldn't stop."

(Tank crashes through the gates)

"Worst still, Tank now realized he was on the wrong path. There ahead was Big Mac. The signalman changed the path right on time."

Changelings: "On, on! Faster!"

Narrator: "Cried the changelings.

Suddenly, he saw Cranky pulling a long slow load."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Oh my goodness!"

Tank: "Help! Save me!"

Narrator: "A quick thinking shunter did, right on time."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "What was that?!"

Narrator: "Exclaimed Cranky.

The signalman warned the stationmaster at the next station."

Signalman: "There's a runaway coming!"

Stationmaster: "We'll send him into the sidings."

Tank: "Help, help!"

Narrator: "Called Tank again.

Tank saw some buffers."

Tank: "Those will stop me."

Narrator: "But the path to the buffers wasn't set."

Tank: "Oh, god! I'm back on the main road."

Narrator: "Meanwhile, Dr. Hooves was racing to the rescue."

Dr. Hooves: "I must catch Tank, I must."

Narrator: "Tank sped past Filthy Rich.

More danger lay ahead. Men working on a bridge, but they had been warned about the runaway Tank and his changelings.

They diverted him onto an old path straight into a muddy pool."

(Tank falls into the muddy pool)

Tank: "Stopped at last!"

Narrator: "Dr. Hooves arrived, and when he saw Tank, he could only smile."

Dr. Hooves: "A pond is the only place for a tortoise, I suppose."

Narrator: "That night, Tank spoke to Dr. Hooves."

Tank: "I'm sorry, Mr. Hooves if I caused you any embarrassing situation."

Dr. Hooves: "That's alright, Tank. So what made you think of going forwards?"

Tank: "It was fun."

Narrator: "Decided Tank."

Tank: "But from now on I'll be very happy to look forward to the future. Busy going backwards, so to speak."

### A Better View for Big Macintosh

Narrator: "Big Macintosh was feeling grumpy. This was making Cranky Doodle Donkey cross."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Why do you have to complain all the time?"

Big Macintosh: "Because I'm a big red horse and I know everything. I shall complain whenever I fucking want. You're just a small donkey with ideas above your station."

Pipsqueak: "I can't see any."

Narrator: "Said Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "Where are they at?"

Big Macintosh: "Any what at?"

Pipsqueak: "Ideas above the station. The sky's empty."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Just like your head, Pipsqueak."

Narrator: "Laughed Cranky, but Big Mac was still grumpy."

Big Macintosh: "One day I'll show you just what a big horse could really do."

Pipsqueak: "So what can a big horse really do?"

Big Macintosh: "Not speak to silly little fillies for a start."

Narrator: "Replied Big Mac. Then, he puffed away.

Later that day, Hoity Toity came to see him."

Hoity Toity: "Big Macintosh, you'll be making one stop today with an empty express to test our new station. You can make up time for lost time afterwards."

Big Macintosh: "Why can't Filthy Rich do it? He likes idling at stations."

Hoity Toity: "You will do as you are told!"

Narrator: "So Big Mac did.

But he was still unhappy and he grew sick, too."

Big Macintosh: "I just can't get up to fucking speed."

Narrator: "He stroaned."

Big Macintosh's Fireman: "It's time for your visit to the works. Your body's clogged."

Narrator: "Said the fireman."

Narrator: "At last they approached the new station. Big Mac was impressed, but his mood soon changed. In front of him was a blank wall and huge buffers."

Big Macintosh: "What a boring view! Important horses like me must have a panoramic view where I can see people and people can see me."

Narrator: "And he kicked at the ground angrily. Big Mac was happy when it was time to leave."

Big Macintosh's Driver: "Now you can really enjoy your run, as long as your body will let you."

Narrator: "Said his driver."

Big Macintosh: "Come on, come on! I can go faster than this."

Narrator: "Huffed Big Mac."

Big Macintosh: "Sick? Me? Never!"

Narrator: "But Big Mac began to feel more and more feeble, and soon, he came to a complete stop!"

Big Macintosh: "What the hell happened?"

Narrator: "His driver and fireman inspected him."

Big Macintosh's Fireman: "Something's broken inside of you, Big Mac."

Narrator: "Said his fireman."

Big Macintosh's Fireman: "Now, you really do need to go to the works."

Narrator: "Big Mac was still fuming when Cranky arrived to collect his buffaloes."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Well, well, well. So much for knowing about everything. You got too puffed up in your head, so it serves you right."

Narrator: "When Big Mac returned from the Works a few weeks later, he was still boasting."

Big Macintosh: "I am the finest horse in Equestria, probably the finest in the world."

Hoity Toity: "Come on, Big Mac, we're going to the official grand opening of the new station."

Narrator: "Then there was trouble ahead, as Big Mac approached the new station, neither the driver or fireman could apply his brakes.

Something had jammed.

The driver reduced steam, but Big Mac was still going too fast."

(SMASH!)

Big Macintosh: "Help me! Please!"

Hoity Toity: "Well, Big Mac."

Narrator: "Said Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "I knew you wanted a panoramic view, but this is not the way to achieve it."

Big Macintosh: "Yes sir, sorry sir!"

Narrator: "When Big Mac was repaired again, he took Hoity Toity to the new station for it's second official opening.

This time, he arrived safely, and everyone clapped and cheered as he pulled in. Hoity Toity spoke to him."

Hoity Toity: "Your panoramic view is here to stay, I trust in you will always see through it, from the safety of your own road."

Narrator: "Big Mac hardly agreed."

### Night Animal

See how the night sky glows,
See the light from the night animal,
The bright glow from the night animal.
On down the path he calls...
Hoooooo-oooooo!!!
On down the path he calls.
All through the night he goes.
Hear the sound of the night animal,
The call of the night animal.
Hear how his call goes...
Hoooooo-oooooo!!!
Hear how his call goes.
Pulling, heaving, big animal breathing.
Feet moving side by side.
Driver checking, gauging, peering,
Fireman stoking by his side.
On down the path they go.
Fast road for the mail load,
Clear away for the post load.
Non-stop all night they go...
Hoooooo-oooooo!!!
Non-stop all night they go.
See how the night sky glows.
Clear ahead for the night animal,
Green light for the night animal.
On down the road he calls...
Hoooooo-oooooo!!!
On down the road he calls.
Dawn is breaking, sleepy town waking.
Children waving, watch him go.
Freight loads, milk loads,
Boat loads waiting,
Stand aside to let him go.
There in the morning glow
The sunlight on the night animal,
Silhouettes the night animal.
On down the path he calls...
Hoooooo-oooooo!!!
There in the morning glow.
On down the path he calls
Hear the sound of the night animal,
The call of the night animal.
Hear how his call goes...
Hoooooo-oooooo!!!
Hear how his call goes.
On down the path he calls,
On down the path he calls.
