pete seeger - the wreck of the old 97 lyrics
well they gave him his orders at monroe, virginia
said: “steve, you’re way behind time
“this is not 38, this is ol’ 97
“put her into spencer on time.”
then 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 ol’ ’97 roll.”
and then a telegram come from washington station
this is how it read:
“oh that brave engineer that run ol 97
“is lyin in old danville dead.”
‘cos he was going down a grade making 90 miles an hour
the whistle broke into a scream
he was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle
scalded to death by the steam
one more time!
oh, now all you ladies you’d better take a warning
from this time on and learn
never speak hard words to your true-lovin’ husband
he may leave you and never return
poor boy
