English Electric
Can you ever take me back
Along the southern track
My baggage on the rack
English Electric
Going down St Albans way
I couldn't really say
How long I'd stay around
Depended then...

And summer...
Coming back on Friday night
With the gorse alight
All along the line 
From Elstree and Borehamwood
And through the tunnel
Strumming Flowers In The Rain
On the stopping train 
Take me home again

English Electric 
Bridges, hills and country lanes
The spires and weather vanes 
And leaded window panes 
English,non-metric  
Take me back the way I went
Through Essex, Herts or Kent
When I was young and 
Meant to be star

And summer
It was with my first guitar
A Yamaha
I took it everywhere:
"Hey, you with the hair"
They yelled at me
In summer
Strumming Flowers in the Rain
On the stopping train 
Take me home again
