paroles de chanson The Streamlined Cannon Ball - Roy Acuff

A long steel rail, a short cross tie
I'm on my way back home
I'm on a train, the king of them all
That streamlined cannonball

She moves along like a cannonball
Like a star in its heavenly flight
This lonesome sound from the whistle you love
As she travels through the night

Her headlight gleams out in the night
The firebox flash you see
The blinds I ride, the life that I love
It's home sweet home to me

She moves along like a cannonball
Like a star in its heavenly flight
This lonesome sound from the whistle you love
As she travels through the night

I can see the smile of the engineer
Although he's old and gray
A contented heart, he waits the call
Of the streamlined cannonball

She moves along like a cannonball
Like a star in its heavenly flight
This lonesome sound from the whistle you love
As she travels through the night
