《Wreck of the old’ 97》歌词

[00:00:00] Wreck of the old' 97 - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:05] Well they gave him his orders at Monroe

[00:00:08] Virginia

[00:00:09] Said Steve you're way behind time

[00:00:13] This is not 38 this is Ol' 97

[00:00:18] Put her into Spencer on time

[00:00:22] Then he turned around and said to his black

[00:00:25] Greasy fireman

[00:00:26] Shovel on a little more coal

[00:00:30] And when we cross that White Oak mountain

[00:00:35] Watch Ol' '97 roll

[00:00:56] And then a telegram come from Washington station

[00:00:59] Oh that brave engineer that run ol 97

[00:01:04] Is lyin in old Danville dead

[00:01:08] 'Cos he was going down a grade

[00:01:12] He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle

[00:01:16] The whistle broke into a scream

[00:01:21] He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle

[00:01:25] Scalded to death by the steam

[00:01:29] Oh now all you ladies

[00:01:31] You'd better take a warning

[00:01:33] From this time on and learn

[00:01:37] Never speak hard words to your true-lovin' husband

[00:01:41] He may leave you and never return
