Wreck Of The Ol' 97 - Woody Guthrie/Sonny Terry (桑尼·特里)/Cisco Houston[00:00:00]

Well they give him his orders in Monroe Virginia[00:00:12]

Saying Pete you're way behind time[00:00:16]

This ain't 38 but it's old 97[00:00:20]

And you've got to be in Center on time[00:00:24]

But he turned around to his black greasy fireman[00:00:29]

Said Shovel in a little more coal[00:00:32]

When we cross that White Oak Mountain[00:00:36]

You can watch old 97 roll[00:00:39]

Well it's a mighty rough road[00:00:45]

From Lakesburg to Danville[00:00:46]

And a line on a three mile grade[00:00:48]

It was on this grade that he lost his airbrakes[00:00:52]

And you see what a jump he made[00:00:56]

He was a-going down the grade[00:01:00]

Making ninety miles an hour[00:01:02]

And his whistle broke out in a scream[00:01:03]

It was on that grade that he lost his airbrakes[00:01:08]

And you see what a jump he made[00:01:11]

Well ladies you must all take warning[00:01:16]

From this time now and on[00:01:22]

Never speak harsh words[00:01:26]

To your true loving husband[00:01:28]

He might leave you and never come home[00:01:30]

He was a-going down the grade[00:01:34]

Making ninety miles an hour[00:01:36]

And his whistle begin to scream[00:01:38]

And we found him in the wreck with[00:01:42]

His hand on his throttle[00:01:44]

And scalded to death by the steam[00:01:45]

Well ladies you can all take warning[00:01:50]

From this time now and on[00:01:53]

Never speak harsh words[00:01:57]

To your true loving husband[00:01:59]

He might leave you and never return[00:02:01]
