Lyrics!!
Here comes the diesel train
With its steel refrain,
Hear me knocking.
The diesel's on its way,
It's gonna win the day,
Hear me knocking.
Listen to the chatter of the diesel force,
Generating twenty seven hundred horse,
Camshaft rolling while the rockers rock,
Hear me knock.
See me hustle,
Feel my muscle,
Pumping Iron.
Trying to build my body,
Trying to lose my mind.
See me straining,
I'm in training,
Pumping Iron.
I'm a diesel engine,
I'm knocking, I'm knocking, I'm knocking,
I'm Pumping Iron.
COACHES
Well he's the one they'll choose,
You know he just can't lose,
Hear him knocking.
There ain't another rig
That's even half as big,
Hear him knocking.
Everybody's gonna say "that train is smart",
The mighty diesel engine is a work of art.
The undisputed leader of the Rolling Stock,
GREASEBALL
See me knock.
GREASEBALL AND COACHES
See me hustle,
Feel my muscle,
Pumping Iron.
Stretching my bullworker,
I'm heaving on my weights.
See my flex my delts and pecs - I'm
Pumping Iron.
I'm a diesel engine,
Hey, I'm knocking, you know I'm knocking, said I'm knocking hey-
Heading for the rally (heading for the rally)
Gonna win the first race (gonna win the first race)
I'm gonna run the longest (the biggest and the strongest)
I'm knocking, said I'm knocking, you know I'm knocking.
Well - I'm so beautiful -
tysm
Al is bloody brilliant in the part :-) Love this new cast recording and can't wait to see the show LIVE again soon - Gary
Having only heard the earlier shows soundtracks before I was worried about a female Greaseball, but now I've seen the new production, my God it works so well.

YAAAAS
Who in the beginning says “shes the champion shes number one”??
I think it's supposed to be Dinah
Is Greaseball still a Union Pacific diesel though?
Control still introduces Greaseball as "The greatest diesel locomotive in history: the Union Pacific", claiming that she in fact is. She is not credited as being from the USA in the new show though.
UGHHHH
I do love lesbian trains
From what am hearing so far am liking but still have say nothing will beat the 1984 cast recording ❤
1992 for me.
i like them all, each have their own thing they do best. but tbh i rlly dig the stong chick vibe.
as someones whos just been introduced to this thru the london cast i just cant say any of the other versions ive heard are better than the female lead. IMO it just sounds way better, its def meant to be played as a women

Really impressive vocals, I actually prefer the higher energy score of this rather than the Elvis like style of previous years but the song just doesn’t work with a chick, the “Rig” line is a dick joke, so is “longest, biggest and strongest” nearer the end. Him being a dude was kinda how was constructed, they could have gone down the douchey gay dude route but didn’t. I honestly wonder why.
because its 2024 and people arent as small minded as you are.
A lot of Shakespeare's jokes and innuendos didn't work as well after the great vowel shift, yet here we are. His stuff is still read on occassion. How about we let it be, eh?
Clearly you’ve never heard of a Strap on
Sometimes butches use strap ons.
