Wreck Of The Old 97 - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

Well they gave him his orders at[00:00:13]

Monroe Virginia sayin' Steve[00:00:16]

You're way behind time[00:00:18]

This is not 38 but this is old 97 you've got to be[00:00:21]

Into Spencer on time[00:00:26]

Then he turned around and[00:00:29]

His black greasy fireman shovel on[00:00:31]

A little more coal[00:00:34]

And when we cross that White Oak[00:00:37]

Mountain you can watch old 97 roll[00:00:40]

Well it's a mighty rough road from Lakesburg to Danville[00:00:45]

And a line on a three mile grade[00:00:49]

It was on this grade that he lost his airbrakes[00:00:53]

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

He was a-going down the grade making ninety miles an hour[00:01:01]

And his whistle broke out in a scream[00:01:04]

It was on that grade that he lost his airbrakes[00:01:09]

And you see what a jump he made[00:01:12]

Well ladies you can all take warning[00:01:17]

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

Never speak harsh words to[00:01:27]

Your true loving husband[00:01:29]

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

He was a-going down the grade[00:01:35]

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

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

And we found him in the[00:01:43]

Wreck with his hand on his throttle[00:01:44]

And scalded to death by the steam[00:01:46]

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

From this time now and on[00:01:54]

Never speak harsh words[00:01:58]

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

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