《Wreck Of The Old 97》歌词

[00:00:01] Wreck Of The Old 97 - Eddy Arnold

[00:00:07] They gave him his orders at monroe virginia

[00:00:10] Sayin' steve you're way behind time

[00:00:14] This is not 38 but this it's old 97

[00:00:18] You must put her in spencer on time

[00:00:22] He turned around and said to his black greasy fireman

[00:00:25] Just shovel on a little more coal

[00:00:29] And when we cross that white oak mountain

[00:00:33] You can watch old 97 roll

[00:00:37] He was goin' down the grade makin' ninety miles an hour

[00:00:40] His whistle broke into a scream

[00:00:44] He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle

[00:00:48] Scalded to death by the steam

[00:00:52] It's a mighty rough road from lynchburg to danville

[00:00:55] With a line on a three mile grade

[00:00:59] It was on this grade that he lost his air brakes

[00:01:03] And he see what a jump we made

[00:01:06] He was goin' down the grade makin' ninety miles an hour

[00:01:10] His whistle broke into a scream

[00:01:14] He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle

[00:01:18] Scalded to death by the steam

[00:01:37] So come on you ladies you must take a warning

[00:01:41] From this time on and learn

[00:01:44] Never speak harsh words to your true loving husband

[00:01:48] He may leave you and never return
