Engine 143 - Joan Baez[00:00:00]
Written by:Hill/DeRose[00:00:00]
Along came the f15 the swiftest on the line[00:00:34]
Running over the c and o road just twenty minutes behind[00:00:43]
Running into cevile head porters on the line[00:00:51]
Receiving their strict orders from a station just behind[00:00:59]
Georgie's mother came to him with a bucket on her arm[00:01:08]
She said my darling son be careful how you run[00:01:16]
There's many a man has lost his life in trying to make lost time[00:01:24]
But if you run your engine right you'll get there just on time[00:01:32]
Up the drive she darted into a rocks she crushed[00:01:43]
Upside down the engine turned and Georgie's breast did smash[00:01:50]
His head lay against the firebox door the flames are rolling high[00:01:59]
I'm glad be born for an engineer c and o road to die[00:02:07]
The doctor said to Georgie my darling boy be still[00:02:18]
Your life may yet be saved if it is god's blessed will[00:02:25]
Oh no cry George that will not do I rather die so free[00:02:33]
I want to die for the engine I love one hundred and forty three[00:02:42]
And the doctor said to Georgie your life cannot be saved[00:02:52]
Murdered upon a railway and laid in a lonesome grave[00:03:00]
His face was covered up with blood his eyes they could not see[00:03:07]
And the very last words poor Georgie cry when nearer my god to they[00:03:16]
