The Family Coach
All aboard the family coachIt's leaving Bamville RoadChristmas 1968The Christmas when it snowed Whilst on board the family coachThey were circling the moonNo one had been there beforeAnd they'd be landing there in June CHORUS:Hey, hey, family coachMy family coachYou gotta to make the mostThe most of your family coach Meanwhile on the family coachThe postillion quietly spokeHe said ?You cannot leave your family coachAnd this is not a joke.We must work out our differencesThough none of us may changeWe all take different routes through lifeBut your coach will stay the same?Back on board Apollo 8They had gone behindSongtexteAnd the human family held it's breathAnd wondered what they'd findThe family coach can stay on EarthOr be a rocket shipBut where, wherever, wherever you may goYour kin will share the tripNow it might well appear to youThat they were simpler daysAnd the family coach is smaller nowSome have passed awayBut there's never been a golden ageNostalgia's for the lameThe best is always yet to comeIt's that kind of game
