The Wreck of the Number Nine - Hank Snow[00:00:01]
Written by:Carson J. Robison/Chet Atkins[00:00:03]
They give him his orders at monroe virginia[00:00:05]
Sayin' steve you're way behind time[00:00:09]
This is not thirty eight but it's old ninety seven[00:00:13]
You must put her in spencer on time[00:00:17]
Then he looked 'round and said to his black greasy fireman[00:00:21]
Just shovel in a little more coal[00:00:25]
And when we 'cross that white oak mountain[00:00:29]
You can watch old ninety seven roll[00:00:33]
It's a mighty rough road from lynchburg to danville[00:00:54]
In a line on a three mile grade[00:00:58]
It was on that grade where he lost his air brakes[00:01:02]
So you see what a jump he made[00:01:06]
He was goin' down grade makin' ninety miles an hour[00:01:10]
And his whistle broke into a scream[00:01:14]
He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle[00:01:18]
And scalded to death by the steam[00:01:23]
Now ladies you must all take warning[00:01:43]
From this time on and learn[00:01:47]
Never speak harsh words to your true lovin' husband[00:01:51]
He may leave you and never return[00:01:55]
