Nitro Express - Red Simpson[00:00:00]
I was pullin' up a hill that's known as the Devil's Crest[00:00:06]
Haulin' 36 ton on a run called the Nitro Express[00:00:12]
There was nothin' but curves a runnin' from the top on down[00:00:18]
And at the bottom of the grade[00:00:24]
Sat a quiet little country town[00:00:26]
Well I was drivin' off the top[00:00:30]
When she jarred and the driveshaft broke[00:00:32]
Started pumpin' up the brakes[00:00:36]
Saw 'em going in a big cloud of smoke[00:00:38]
To keep 'er upright[00:00:42]
I knew I had to do my best[00:00:44]
Against a runaway bomb they call the Nitro Express[00:00:48]
There was 36 ton of a detonated steel[00:00:54]
Over 18 tires that smoked and squealed[00:00:57]
I had to ride her down and I couldn't jump free[00:01:00]
Or there'd be a big hole where[00:01:03]
That little town used to be[00:01:05]
Well that old trailer leaned each time[00:01:15]
That I took another curve[00:01:18]
My hands started sweatin'[00:01:22]
And I knew I was losin' my nerve[00:01:23]
And I was cussin' each rock[00:01:27]
And every inch of the Devil's Crest[00:01:29]
A fightin' with the wheel of a rig called the Nitro Express[00:01:33]
I side swipped a mountain so[00:01:40]
I'd slow her down by rubbin' her side[00:01:41]
And when the sparks started flyin' man[00:01:45]
It looked like the 4th of July[00:01:47]
I finally got her stopped[00:01:52]
But mister I'm a gonna confess[00:01:53]
That's the last run I'm makin'[00:01:57]
In a rig called the Nitro Express[00:01:59]
There was 36 ton of a detonated steel[00:02:03]
Over 18 tires that smoked and squealed[00:02:06]
I had to ride her down and I couldn't jump free[00:02:10]
Or there'd be a big hole where[00:02:12]
That little town used to be[00:02:14]
There was 36 ton of a detonated steel[00:02:18]
Over 18 tires that smoked and squealed[00:02:21]
I had to ride her down and I couldn't jump free[00:02:25]
Or there'd be a big hole where[00:02:27]
That little town used to be[00:02:29]
