《銀河鉄道999》的英文歌詞如下：
Oh, nine hundred ninety-nine
A train that goes so high
And if you fall out
You float away on the stars
Oh, nine hundred ninety-nine
A train that runs so true
And if you jump off
You land in heaven too
Go on up, up, up, up, up, up
Up on the roof of the world
And then you'll see what I'll see
When I ride the train of the world
Oh, nine hundred ninety-nine
A train that never stops
And if you miss it
You'll cry for all the lost opportunities
Oh, nine hundred ninety-nine
It's not for sinners or fools
So get on board, boy, don't miss your chance
To ride the train of the world.
