Lyricist：Jesse Fuller[00:00:04]

Composer：Jesse Fuller[00:00:09]

Once upon a time there was an engineer[00:00:13]

Drove a locomotive both far and near[00:00:16]

Accompanied by a monkey that sit on a stool[00:00:19]

Watching everything the engineer would do[00:00:22]

One day the engineer wanted a bite to eat[00:00:28]

Left the monkey sitting on the driver's seat[00:00:31]

Monkey pulled the throttle[00:00:33]

The locomotive jumped the gun[00:00:35]

And did 80 miles an hour on the mainline run run[00:00:36]

All the big locomotive than a just get time[00:00:39]

Big locomotive coming down the line[00:00:42]

Big locomotive no 99[00:00:45]

Left the engineer with a worried mind[00:00:48]

Engineer bigain the called this dispatcher on the phone[00:01:05]

Tell him all about his locomotive was gone[00:01:08]

Geton the wire switch operator to the right[00:01:10]

'Cause the monkey's got the main line sewed up tight[00:01:13]

Switch operator got the message on time[00:01:16]

The northbound livin' on the same main line[00:01:19]

Open up the switch gonna let him through the hole[00:01:22]

'Cause the monkey's got the locomotive under control[00:01:24]

When the big locomotive an this just a time[00:01:27]

Big locomotive coming down the line[00:01:30]

Big locomotive no 99[00:01:34]

Left the engineer with a worried mind[00:01:37]

Big locomotive[00:01:39]

Big locomotive[00:01:41]

Big locomotive coming down the line[00:01:43]

Big locomotive no 99[00:01:45]

Left the engineer with a worried mind[00:01:48]

Left the engineer with a worried mind[00:01:51]

Left the engineer with a worried mind[00:01:54]
