Lyrics Engine Engine #9 - Roger Miller

Engine Engine #9

Engine, Engine No. 9, coming down the railroad line
How much farther back did she get off?
Old brown suitcase that she carried, I’ve looked for it everywhere
It just ain’t here among the rest and I’m a little upset
Yes, tell me Engine, Engine No. 9, coming down the railroad line
I know she got on in Baltimore
A hundred and ten miles ain’t much distance, but
It sure do make a difference, I don’t think she loves me anymore
I warned her of the dangers, don’t speak to strangers
If by chance she find new romance, warmer lips to kiss her
Arms to hold her tighter, stirring new fires inside her
How I wish that it was me instead of he that stands beside her
Engine, Engine No. 9, coming down the railroad line
I know she got on in Baltimore
A hundred and ten miles ain’t much distance
But it sure do make a difference, I don’t think she loves me anymore
No, I don’t think she loves me anymore
I don’t think she loves me anymore
