The Golden Spike |
| Gang man, make the bed |
| A cross tie at your head |
| For we can’t lay the track |
| 'til the benders off your back |
| Gang man, make the bed |
| Carry man, get the feel |
| Heave that ply of steel |
| We can’t get to town |
| 'til I bring my hammer down |
| Carry man, get the feel |
| Spiker, place your nail |
| Right beside the rail |
| I can drive all you’ve got |
| 'cause I keep my hammer hot |
| Spiker, place your nail |
| Big train, stay off my back |
| You got a thousand mile of track |
| I can hear your whistle blow |
| But there ain’t no where to go |
| Big train, stay off my back |
| Captain let it be |
| You know you can’t hurry me |
| You won’t give me my time 'cause you know I’m in my prime |
| Captain, let it be |
| Listen to my hammer whine |
| We got ninety mile of track to line |
| We can do what we like when we drive the golden spike |
| Listen to my hammer whine |
