Boxcar Willie - Train Medley Lyrics

Lyrics Train Medley - Boxcar Willie



Here she comes
Look at her roll
There she flies eating that coal
Watch her fly she's huggin' the rails
Dallas bound bound bound Fire Ball mail
Well the train of love is a coming
Big Black wheels a hummin'
Well here and there and everywhere happy hearts are hummin'
Train man tell me maybe ain't ya got my baby
Well every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam
But everybody's baby but mines coming home.
Hand me down my walking cane
O Hand me down my walking cane
Hand me down my walking cane I'm a gonna leave on the
Midnight train
Ain't gonna worry this way no more
He was a going down the grade doing ninety miles an hour
When the whistle broke into a scream
He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle and
Scalded to death by the steam
Well look yonder coming
Coming down that railroad track
Well look yonder coming honey coming down that
Railroadtracks
It's that Orange Blossom special bringing my baby back
From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide pacific shore
To the queen of flowing mountains by the south belt by the
Shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine hear that lonsome whistle
Squall
No chances can be taken on the wabash cannon ball
Take that night train to Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis
Tell the engineer to throw the throttle open
Leave at three fifty seven and arrive at eleven
And I'll be a waitin and a hoping
Halleujah
Halleujah
Oh we'll shout Halleujah all the way
And we'll have a jubilee down in Memphis Tennesse
And we'll shout Halleujah all the way
