The Streamlined Cannon Ball

歌詞

A long steel rail a short crosstie I'm on my way back home I'm on the train the king of them all That Streamlined Cannonball She moves along like a cannonball Like a star in its heavenly flight This lonesome sound of the whistle you love As she travels through the night Her headlight gleams out in the night The firebox flash you see The blinds I ride, the lights that I love It's home sweet home to me She moves along like a cannonball Like a star in its heavenly flight This lonesome sound of the whistle you love As she travels through the night I can see the smile of the engineer Although he's old and gray A contented heart he awaits a call Of the Streamlined Cannonball She moves along like a cannonball Like a star in its heavenly flight This lonesome sound of the whistle you love As she travels through the night
