The train to Melksham

[To the melody of "The Train to Morrow"]

If I should go to Melksham on a morn a year from now
It might be somewhat difficult to find exactly how
For the train that goes to Melksham went along its way at dawn
The day the station silent is, deserted and forlorn.

The alternative for Swindon ^ its enough to make you laugh
A hundred steps going down and up while changing trains at Bath.

Before there was a round of cuts imposed by DfT
You could have your lunch in Swindon town
And be back home by three.
