Wabash Cannonball Lyrics - Artist : Connie Francis
From the great Atlantic ocean
To the wide Pacific shore From the green New Hampshire mountains To the Southland's Cajun lore She's streamlined and she's welcomed By the trainmen one and all She's a railroad institution Called the Wabash Cannonball Listen to the jingle The rumble and the roar As she rolls on down the mountains From the hills and by the shore Hear the mighty rush of the engine Hear that lonesome whistle squall It mingled with the jingle On the Wabash Cannonball She came down through Birmingham One cold December day As she rolled into the station You could hear the people say There's a girl from Tennessee She's long and she's tall She came down from Birmingham On the Wabash Cannonball Our eastern states are dandies So the western people say From [?] to St. Louis Cincinnati by the way From the hills of Minnesota Where the rippling waters fall The flatlands of New Jersey On the Wabash Cannonball Well take that ghost of Casey Jones May his name forever stand He has built a reputation With the railroads of our land His final run is over And before the curtains fall We'll carry him back to Dixie On the Wabash Cannonball Listen to the jingle The rumble and the roar As she rolls on down the mountains From the hills and by the shore Hear the mighty rush of the engine Hear that lonesome whistle squall It mingled with the jingle On the Wabash Cannonball |
