Blue Water Line - The Brothers Four[00:00:00]
Written by:Martin Seligson/Dora Graf[00:00:01]
The city council met last week the vote was four to three[00:00:06]
To tear the home town depot down and build a factory[00:00:12]
To take that stretch of history and tear it off the map[00:00:18]
And to take old engine number nine and turn it into scrap[00:00:23]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:00:29]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:00:35]
If you can't afford a quarter then you ought to give a dime[00:00:40]
If everybody gave then we could save the blue water line[00:00:46]
Oh I could tell you stories of the glories of that train[00:00:53]
Of the 49'er miners and the time old Jesse James[00:00:59]
Stole a thousand golden nuggets in that great train robbery[00:01:04]
And when old Abe Lincoln rode with Tad upon his knee[00:01:10]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:01:16]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:01:22]
If you can't afford a quarter then you ought to give a dime[00:01:27]
If everybody gave then we could save the blue water line[00:01:33]
Just twenty thousand quarters and just forty thousand dimes[00:01:41]
And we'll ride again to glory on the old blue water line[00:01:46]
We'll have William Jennings Bryant stokin' coal on number nine[00:01:52]
So dig inside your pockets for the old blue water line[00:01:57]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:02:04]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:02:10]
If you can't afford a quarter then you ought to give a dime[00:02:15]
If everybody gave then we could save the blue water line[00:02:21]
If everybody gave then we could save the blue water line[00:02:27]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:02:33]
Blue water blue water blue water line[00:02:39]
