Roy Acuff - Wabash Cannonball lyrics



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
