Engine 143 - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)[00:00:00]

Written by：CARTER, A.P.[00:00:00]

Along came the F-15 the swiftest on the line[00:00:08]

Running over the C and O road just twenty minutes behind[00:00:17]

Running into Cevile head porters on the line[00:00:27]

Receiving their strict orders from a station just behind[00:00:35]

Georgie's mother came to him with a bucket on her arm[00:00:46]

Saying my darling son be careful how you run[00:00:56]

Many a man has lost his life by trying to make lost time[00:01:04]

But if you run your engine right you'll get there just on time[00:01:13]

Up the road he darted against the rocks he crushed[00:01:31]

Upside down the engine turned and Georgie's breast did smash[00:01:40]

His head was against the firebox door the flames were rolling high[00:01:48]

I'm glad I was born to be an engineer on the C and O road to die[00:01:58]

The doctor said to Georgie my darling son be still[00:02:08]

Your life may yet be saved if it is God's blessed will[00:02:19]

Oh no said George that will not do I want to die so free[00:02:28]

I want to die for the engine I love one hundred and forty three[00:02:37]

The doctor said to Georgie your life cannot be saved[00:02:49]

Murdered upon a railroad and laid in a lonesome grave[00:03:00]

His face was covered up with blood his eyes you could not see[00:03:08]

The very last words poor Georgie said was nearer my God to thee[00:03:17]
