Wreck Of The Old 97(LIVE) - Johnny Cash[00:00:01]
Well they gave him his orders at Monroe Virginia sayin' Steve you're way behind time[00:00:09]
This is not 38 this is old 97 put her into Spencer on time[00:00:16]
Then he turned around and said to his black greasy fireman shovel on a little more coal[00:00:23]
And when we cross that White Oak Mountain watch old 97 roll[00:00:30]
And then the telegram come to Washington station this is how it read[00:00:51]
Oh that brave engineer that run old 97 he's a layin' in old Danville dead[00:00:58]
Cause he was goin' down the grade makin' 90 miles an hour his whistle broke into a scream[00:01:05]
He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle[00:01:12]
A scalded to death by the steam[00:01:16]
So now all you ladies you better take a warnin' from this time on and learn[00:01:34]
Never speak harsh words to your true lovin' husband[00:01:41]
He may leave you and never return[00:01:44]
