[Verse 1]
[D]On London Transport I u[A]sed
to do [D]my shopping
Stock- well up down at the Bank and
fin[E]ish up [A]on Wapping station
[D]Tooting my horn,
'n' kids I [G]Turn- [D]ham Green
[G]If the[A]y played on the edge
where they'd been [D]seen
[G]I was worki[D]ng on

[Verse 2]
the [A]railway
Not as a sleeper [D]as some folk say
[G]I was working on the[D] rai[A]lway
Mind the doors, you'll be [D]okay

[Verse 3]
I met [D]a girl call Stepney Green,
she really was quite sweet
She used [G]to give [D]me New Cross buns,
oh what a Baker[A]s- [D]treet
I got down on [A]my Neas- den said
could [D]she give me a kiss
She said go and ask if Barbi- can,
[A]I can't Stan- more o[D]f this
I [G]was work[D]ing on

[Verse 4]
the railway
[A](subtle stuff)
Not as a sleeper as some
[D]folk [G]say ('ear listen)
I was working on [D]the [A]railway
Mind the doors, you'll be [D]okay

[Verse 5]
I met [D]a girl called V[A]alerie t[D]he
Angel of my heart
I tried [G]to get [D]her Plaistow but the
Ald- [E]wych was too smart
[A]I said [D]O- Val I'm not a Rich- [A]mond,
Golder[D]s Green for all I know
She left [G]me by [D]the Waterloo
[A]what a loovely way [D]to go
[G]I was worki[D]ng on

[Verse 6]

Mind the doors, you'll be [D]okay

[Verse 7]
[D]My girl from Ealing Common [A]she
[D]ran off with High Street Ken
But now she's seen that Kens- al
Green she's back [E]with me [A]again
[D]I knew I'd Picc- a- d[A]illy if
[D]I worked upon the rail
I'm going to wed Victoria
her mother[A]'s Maida [D]Vale

[Verse 8]
I was working on [D]the railway
[A]('ear listen)
Not as a sleeper as [D]some folk
say (it's good isn't it)

Mind the doors, you'll be [D]okay
[Em]Mind the d[A]oors,
you'll be [D]okay
