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 |
