Wreck of the Old '97 - Hank Snow/D.R[00:00:00]
Well they gave him his orders at Monroe Virginia[00:00:18]
Said Steve you're way behind time[00:00:22]
This Is not 38 this Is ol'97[00:00:27]
Put her Into Spencer on time[00:00:31]
Then he turned around and said to his black greasy fireman[00:00:36]
Shovel on a little more coal[00:00:41]
And when we cross that white oak mountain[00:00:45]
Watch ol''97 roll[00:00:49]
It's a mighty rough road[00:01:12]
From lynch-burg to danville[00:01:14]
In a line on a three mile grade[00:01:16]
It was on that grade that he lost his air-brakes[00:01:21]
Oh you see what a jump we made[00:01:25]
'Cos he was going down a grade making 90 miles an hour[00:01:30]
The whistle broke Into a scream[00:01:34]
He was found In the wreck with his hand on the throttle[00:01:39]
Scalded to death by the steam[00:01:43]
Now ladies you must take a warning[00:01:48]
From this time on and learn[00:01:53]
Never speak harsh words[00:01:57]
To your true love or husband[00:01:59]
He may leave you and never return[00:02:01]
