Sometimes, late at night,
You can hear the whistle wail
With a spooky, screechy sound
Like a wheel gone off the rail;
And up in the smoky clouds,
You can almost recognize
The ghost of a crazy engineer
With fiery cinder eyes;
I say, Whoo-whoo!
Can't you hear the haunted train?
Whoo-whoo!
Waitin' on a haunted train
Crash that engine,
You know, only sticks and stones
And old conductors' bones remain...

Episode 108 The List / Haunted Train
The List
Arnold attemps to do "it all" - everything on "the list for a kid's perfect Saturday" - but has only slightly more success than Grandma's attempts to get a large piano into the boarding house
Written by Joe Ansolabehere
Storyboard Direction by Mark O'Hare
Animation Direction by Larry Leichliter
Storyboard Artists: Derek Drymon, John McIntyre
The song in the closing credits (they're also in the closing credits of the "Urban Adventures" tape)
Sometimes, late at night,
.......
And old conductors' bones remain...
At the end, the engineer says "Arnold, take me to the roundhouse"; on the Urban Adventures tape, he then says "Spooky"
(and I'm not sure about that "fiery cinder eyes" line, but neither the broadcast nor the Urban Adventures closed captions has anything that comes close to matching the line correctly)

Seems like it might be from the closing credits of one of the "Hey Arnold" shows called "The Haunted Train":

As far as who actually sings it...a bit of a mystery since all that's listed is: "uncredited: Singer at end"
