Wreck Of The Old '97(Live at Annex 14 NCO Club Long Binh ) - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]
Well they gave him his orders at Monroe Virginia [00:00:04]
Said: "Steve you're way behind time [00:00:07]
"This is not 38 this is Ol' 97 [00:00:11]
"Put her into Spencer on time "[00:00:15]
Then he turned around and said to his black greasy fireman [00:00:18]
"Shovel on a little more coal [00:00:25]
"And when we cross that White Oak mountain [00:00:29]
"Watch Ol' '97 roll "[00:00:33]
And then a telegram come from Washington station [00:00:51]
This is how it read:[00:00:54]
"Oh that brave engineer that run ol 97 [00:00:58]
"Is lyin in old Danville dead "[00:01:02]
'Cos he was going down a grade making 90 miles an hour [00:01:07]
The whistle broke into a scream [00:01:11]
He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle [00:01:14]
Scalded to death by the steam [00:01:18]
Oh now all you ladies you'd better take a warning [00:01:36]
From this time on and learn [00:01:40]
Never speak hard words to your true-lovin' husband [00:01:44]
He may leave you and never return [00:01:47]
Poor Boy[00:01:50]
