johnny cash - wreck of the old 97 (1975) lyrics
they give him his orders at monroe, virginia
said, “steve, you’re way behind time
this is not 38, but it’s old 97
you must put her in spencer on time.”
he turned around and said to his black, greasy fireman
“shovel on a little more coal
and when we cross that white oak mountain
watch old 97 roll”
and then a telegram came from washington station
this is how it read
it said “that brave engineer that has run ole’ 97
is lying down in danville dead”
he was goin’ down a grade making 90 miles an hour
when his whistle broke into a scream
he was found in the wrеck with his hand on the throttle
scalded to dеath by the steam
so now all you pretty ladies you better take a warning
from this time on and learn
don’t you speak hard words to your true lover husband
he may leave you and never return
