Burlington Northern
Verse 1
Big orange comin' down the railroad line, sometimes green with a little bit of white
Through Fullerton into LA, used to be known as the Santa Fe
Big Diesel and its thundering roar, tearin' down the long dark corridor
Headlights railroad traffic signs, Burlington Northern's right on time

CHORUS
A singin' Burlington
Burlington, Burlington, Burlington

Verse 2
In the Barstow Yard at the crack of dawn, train pulls out for the Long Beach Port
Through Cajon Pass and the desert floor, by the banks of Coal Creek Reservoir
Always on the move that's BNSF, travels so fast you'll lose your breath
Straight shot down the Alameda Line, Burlington Northern's right on time - (To Chorus)

Verse 3
There's more to this railroad than meets the eye, truck like intermodal transit times
Twenty-eight states adding more, trains loaded down with iron ore
Thirty thousand miles of rails and ties, East and West of the Great Divide
All through the day, into the night, Burlington Northern's right on time.

Final Chorus
A singin': Burlington
Burlington (Down the railroad line)
Burlington (Through the Great Divide)
Burlington (Burlington Northern's right on time!)

The Altar Billies are a trio from Orange County California fronted by guitarist/vocalist Michael W Stand. Rounding out the group are Johnny X on upright and Chuck Cummings on Drums. The group covers many classics hits, as well as newly penned originals.

For over 13 years the fellas have been featured at such venues as the Orange County Fair, Tustin Street Fair, Orange Street Fair, Fullerton Farmer’s Market, Silverado Canyon Concert Series, are regulars at the Downtown Santa Ana Farmer’s Market and of course a number of times at NAMM. They have also appeared at many clubs in the OC area – including the "old" Anaheim House of Blues, The Coach House and The Observatory.

In late 2010, the group released its self-titled CD “The Altar Billies.” This release was soon followed by other singles including: “Hold on,” “You Found me,” and their rockabilly version of the Christmas classic: “Joy to the World.” In 2013 the group released their most successful single and video to date: “I’m Still Stand’n.” .

Not to be complacent with the success of “I’m Still Stand’n,” Michael W penned a new song in the summer of 2013 titled “Ballad of the Big Boy” (Titans of the Wasatch). This tune paid homage to the biggest steam engine in the world (owned and operated by Union Pacific Railroad).

In 2014 the group released its first full-length 15-song project titled "Head'n out West." This musical venture featured not only “I’m Still Stand’n,” and “Ballad of the Big Boy,” but found its swing with songs such as “Aim’n High” and “You Can’t look up, When You’re Look’n Down.” 2017 found the fellas hitting the trail once again with their latest release: “Long, Long Road.”

From 2018 through 2021 the group released a myriad of singles including: “The Ballad of Ol’ Luce,” “Virginia Truckee Line,” “Great Big Rollin Big Boy,” and many others. In 2022 the group released its third full length recording project titled: “All In.”

The Altar Billies are proud to carry the rockabilly torch and keep this musical heritage alive. They are 3 swell guys that work hard, play together really well, have a good time in the process and love trains!
