Wabash Cannonball - Alternate |
CHORUS: |
Listen to the jingle the rumble and the roar as she glides along the woodland |
ore the hills and by the shore |
hear the rush of the mighty engine hear the lonesome hobos call |
he’s riding through the jungle on the Wabash cannon ball |
VERSE |
now the western states are dandies so the southern people say from Chicago |
and St. Louis |
and Peoria by the way |
to the lake of Minnesota where the rippling waters flow no chances to be taken on the Wabash cannon ball |
VERSE |
she pulled in to the station one cold December day |
as she rolled up to the platform you could hear all the people say |
now theirs a gal from Birmingham she’s Elong and she’s tall she came down |
from Georgia |
on the Wabash cannon ball |
VERSE |
now heres to daddy claxton may his name forever stand |
and always be remembered in the courts of all the land |
his earthly race is over and as the curtain falls |
we’ll carry him back to Dixie on the Wabash cannon ball |
Wabash Cannonball |
