The Wreck Of The Old 97 - The Seekers[00:00:00]

Written by：George/Traditional[00:00:01]

They gave him his orders at monroe virginia[00:00:17]

Sayin steve you're way behind time[00:00:20]

It's 8 38 and it's the old 97[00:00:24]

Gotta put her into danville on time[00:00:27]

Well it's a mighty rough road from lynchburg down to danville[00:00:30]

On a line with a three mile grade[00:00:33]

It was down that line where he lost his air brakes[00:00:37]

You can see what a jump he made[00:00:40]

Steve brady he said to his black greasy fireman[00:00:43]

Shovel on a little more coal[00:00:47]

I'm waitin to pass them wide open mountains[00:00:50]

Gonna see the old 97 roll[00:00:53]

Well it's a mighty rough road from lynchburg down to danville[00:00:56]

On a line with a three mile grade[00:01:00]

It was down that line where he lost his air brakes[00:01:03]

You can see what a jump he made[00:01:06]

He's comin' down that line makin ninety miles an hour[00:01:10]

The whistle broke into a scream[00:01:13]

They found him in the wreck with his hand upon the throttle[00:01:16]

He'd been scalded to death by steam[00:01:19]

Well it's a mighty rough road from lynchburg down to danville[00:01:23]

On a line with a three mile grade[00:01:26]

It was down that line where he lost his air brakes[00:01:29]

You can see what a jump he made[00:01:33]

Well come on now all you ladies[00:01:36]

From this time on now learn[00:01:39]

Don't you ever say harsh words to your true lovin husband[00:01:42]

He'll leave you and never return[00:01:46]

Well it's a mighty rough road from lynchburg down to danville[00:01:49]

On a line with a three mile grade[00:01:52]

It was down that line where he lost his air brakes[00:01:55]

You can see what a jump he made[00:01:59]

Well he's comin' down that line makin ninety miles an hour[00:02:15]

And the whistle broke into a scream[00:02:18]

They found him in the wreck with his hand upon the throttle[00:02:22]

He'd been scalded to death by steam[00:02:25]

Well it's a mighty rough road from lynchburg down to danville[00:02:28]

On a line with a three mile grade[00:02:31]

It was down that line where he lost his air brakes[00:02:35]

You can see what a jump he made[00:02:38]

Well it's a mighty rough road from lynchburg down to danville[00:02:41]

On a line with a three mile grade[00:02:44]

It was down that line where he lost his airnbrakes[00:02:47]

You can see what a jump he mad[00:02:50]

Well it's a mighty rough road from lynchburg down to danville[00:02:53]

On a line with a three mile grade[00:02:56]

It was down that line where he lost his airnbrakes[00:02:59]

You can see what a jump he mad[00:03:02]
