Wreck Of The Old 97(Live)

Wreck Of The Old 97 (Live) - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]

Written by:Traditional/Johnny Cash/B. Johnson/N. Blake/Bob Johnston[00:00:01]

Well they gave him his orders at Monroe Virginia[00:00:08]

Said Steve you're way behind time[00:00:11]

This is not 38 this is old 97[00:00:15]

You must put her into spencer on time[00:00:19]

Then he turned around and said to his[00:00:22]

Black greasy fireman shovel on a little more coal[00:00:24]

And when we cross that White Oak Mountain watch old 97 roll[00:00:29]

Then the telegram come from Washington station[00:00:50]

And this is how it read[00:00:54]

Oh that brave engineer that run old 97[00:00:57]

He's lyin' in old Danville dead[00:01:01]

'Cause he was goin' down the grade[00:01:04]

Makin' 90 miles an hour[00:01:06]

His whistle broke into a scream[00:01:08]

He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle[00:01:12]

A scalded to death by the steam[00:01:15]

One more time[00:01:18]

So now all you ladies you better[00:01:33]

Take a warnin' from this time on and learn[00:01:35]

Never speak harsh words to your true lovin' husband[00:01:40]

He may leave you and never return for gone[00:01:44]
