The Wreck Of The Old 97(Album Version)

[00:00:00] The Wreck Of The Old 97 (Album Version) - Pink Anderson

[00:00:01] On the 29th day of one November morning

[00:00:08] When the cloud was hangin' low

[00:00:14] 97 pulled out from Washington city

[00:00:21] Like an arrow shot from the bow

[00:00:27] 97 was the fastest mail train

[00:00:34] The south had ever seen

[00:00:39] And it run from new york by the way of Washington

[00:00:46] Through Atlanta down in New Orlean

[00:00:52] I was standing on the mount one cold and frosty morning

[00:00:59] Watching the smoke from below

[00:01:04] That were coming from the funnel of that black and dusty engine

[00:01:11] Way down up on that southern road

[00:01:17] It was 97 the fastest mail train

[00:01:23] That run the southern line

[00:01:29] And when she pulled in at Lynchburg Virginia

[00:01:35] She was forty-seven minutes behind

[00:01:41] Steve Brady he was an engineerah

[00:01:48] And a very brave man was he

[00:01:53] Well there're many good men have lost their life

[00:02:00] For the railroad company

[00:02:05] When they give him his orders at Monroe Virginia

[00:02:12] Said Steve you's way behind

[00:02:18] This is not 38 but it's old 97

[00:02:24] You must put her in Spencer on time

[00:02:30] Steve he smiled when he said to his black and dusty fireman

[00:02:37] Throw me in a little more coal

[00:02:42] And as soon as we cross this White Oak Mountain

[00:02:48] You can watch my driver roll

[00:02:54] It was mighty rough road from Lynchburg to Danville

[00:03:00] The line on a 3-mile grade

[00:03:06] It were on that hill where he lost his average

[00:03:12] You can see what a jump he made

[00:03:18] Steve come down that hill makin' 90 miles an hour

[00:03:25] His whistle began to scream

[00:03:30] Steve was found in the wreck with his hand upon the throttle

[00:03:37] And scalded to death by the steam

[00:03:42] Steve he had a little wife and also two children

[00:03:49] Who were lying at home in bed

[00:03:55] They received the sad message saying husband and father

[00:04:01] Now'm is lying in north Danville dead

[00:04:07] Now ladies you ought to let this be a warning

[00:04:14] This from now and on

[00:04:19] Never speak hard words to your true loving husband

[00:04:26] They may leave you and never return
