Story Behind The Song
I'm an elementary school teacher and I often have students complain about tiny little things. This is a song that lets children know that we shouldn't worry about small problems.
Song Description
It's an upbeat childrens song that gives the message that we shouldn't let minor problems irritate us. We should "laugh off" the small things." It features children singing the chorus.

Lyrics
I'm a steam train - rollin' down the track
little things don't bother me, they just roll off my back
Johnny cut in front of me, he thought no one would see
we're travelling together, makes no difference to me
I'm a steam train - rollin' down the track
little things don't bother me, they just roll off my back
Taylor made a face at me, she thought no one would see
I smiled so big right back at her, she just let out a scream
I'm a steam train - rollin' down the track
little things don't bother me, they just roll off my back
Dan stuck out his tongue at me, he thought no one would see
he looked so silly I just laughed, silly as he could be
I'm a steam train - rollin' down the track
little things don't bother me, they just roll off my back
rollin', rollin', rollin' . . .
