Kentucky Borderline |
She pulled out of Mobile |
In the pouring rain |
Moving through the darkness |
Like a hurricane |
From southern New Port waters |
To the Cumberland so green |
Louisville by Nashville |
And all points in between |
Pounding out a rhythm |
Making up lost time |
Heading for that |
Bluegrass state of mine |
White smoke a rollin' |
Whistle a blowin' |
Listening to her engine keeping time |
Kentucky borderline |
Montgomery my morning |
Birmingham by noon |
Onward through the timber |
Upward to the moon |
Her lonesome whistle cries |
A low sighed refrain |
Like the boys down on Mill street |
Singing of the pain |
No one is gonna stop her |
From her appointed rounds |
This train is moving on |
Its glory bound |
Her lungs are full of fire |
Breathing burning coal |
A raging locamotion |
Like thunder when it rolls |
Singing for the mighty |
Who cast her molten steel |
Drawed the spike and layed the rail |
To ride beneath her wheels |
The pride of our nation |
She’s a monument to them |
A southern bell |
That mighty L&N |
