Special Streamline - Bukka White[00:00:00]
That's that fast Special Streamline[00:00:02]
Leavin' outta Memphis Tennessee[00:00:03]
Goin' into New Orleans[00:00:04]
She runnin' so fast the hobos don't[00:00:06]
Fool with this train They stand on the[00:00:08]
Track with their hat in their hands[00:00:10]
I had a friend girl that mornin' was[00:00:12]
Catchin' that train[00:00:13]
She got up singin' this song[00:00:14]
Hey Dad I'm sorry to leave my home[00:00:16]
Lord Lord Lord Lordy[00:00:22]
She heard that 8:30 local blowin that[00:00:28]
Mornin' She hadn't rid the train in a good while[00:00:29]
She thought it'd have that Special Streamline[00:00:31]
She heard at 8:30 local when she is coming[00:00:33]
To the line declared up for that Streamline[00:00:35]
Blowin' like this[00:00:36]
She said Daddy is that my train[00:00:43]
I say I ain't keepin' up with the train time[00:00:45]
I'm tryin-a make a few dimes[00:00:47]
She dropped her head went to singin[00:00:48]
It's alright how you turn me down[00:00:51]
I ain't got a dime[00:00:57]
After she called for a ticket[00:01:02]
She heard this Special Streamline[00:01:03]
Going 36 miles from Memphis Tennessee[00:01:04]
Make ya lonesome now[00:01:07]
Cause I hobo myself sometimes[00:01:08]
Man asks her Where the other train[00:01:16]
She told him she didn't know[00:01:17]
If she heard a bell she could tell him all about it[00:01:18]
As she dropped over that hill[00:01:20]
And stopped off in the valley[00:01:21]
She heard the bell begin to toll like this[00:01:22]
Make a sound like a church bell toll[00:01:25]
Before she got to that ten mile tunnel[00:01:31]
She blowed and throw'd on the airbrakes[00:01:32]
Airbrakes[00:01:40]
When she got to that ten mile tunnel[00:01:44]
She was gettin' close[00:01:46]
She was tippin cars on automatic switch[00:01:46]
Gettin' her water and coal on the fly[00:01:48]
You could hear her when she was strikin[00:01:50]
That double iron like this[00:01:51]
When she run across the last one[00:02:00]
She squalled in[00:02:01]
This girl looked out an seen that train[00:02:08]
She commenced to singin an cryin[00:02:10]
Hey Daddy I don't want leave[00:02:12]
Mm-mm[00:02:16]
I believe I'll lose my mind[00:02:18]
When that train got a little closer[00:02:22]
Down to New Orleans she went around[00:02:23]
That curve you would hear her[00:02:25]
When she's blowin' like this[00:02:26]
The people's always standin at the station[00:02:34]
Lyin' there to see that train come in[00:02:35]
You would hear her when she squalls[00:02:37]
