"Speeding, sparks like lightning
Engine working hard
Furnace on the foot plate
Shining in the night
Iron striking metal
The sound of racing steel
It's all I ever wanna hear
It's music to my ears
She was a princess of the night
I saw her riding on the war
She was a princess of the night
I take a ride across the sky"

Peter "Biff" Byford, Steve Dawson, Pete Gill, Graham Oliver, and Paul Quinn [1981]
