Are you from the South? We sang this in grade school in Texas in the late Sixties. I'd love to get a hold of one of our old music books from back then.
I'm glad to see that other people remember this tune as well. I remember it from 1965 to 1969 in grade school. The song is still in my head. RUclips thank you for having posted this song.
@@yee52 I'm English and have never heard this song in my life until I watched a video about the 1888 American Presidential Election. This song doesn't seem to be suitable for primary school anyway, because most of the other songs are about god and jesus and other stuff.
Very nice. Great photos and fun arrangement. I was looking for a song to perform during in a lecture on drilling the Hoosac Tunnel, this just might be it!
Singing this song in third grade, I had no idea I would someday hear it with distorted rock guitar LOL Pretty cool version!

I had to sing this in music class in grade school, now I work for the railroad and I'm Irish. This is a better version than we had in school.

Maddie's Vids this is a Canadian song about the C.P.R
No, it's not. It's about the Central Pacific and Union Pacific building the transcontinental railroad. That's in America.
Also, Irish people sang it about the tarriers, who were usually Irish or Chinese.
