"Wabash Cannon Ball" - Ernest Tubb
Track 7 Of 12 On The Album "All Time Hits" (1960)
Intro
Verse 1
From The Great Atlantic Ocean To The Wide Pacific Shore
From The Queen Of Flowing Mountains To The South Belle By The Shore
She's Mighty Tall And Handsome And Known Quite Well By All
She's The Combination On The Wabash Cannonball
Verse 2
She Came Down From Birmingham One Cold December Day
As She Rolled Into The Station, You Could Hear All The People Say
"There's A Girl From Tennessee, She's Long And She's Tall
She Came Down From Birmingham On The Wabash Cannonball"
Guitar Solo
Verse 3
Our Eastern States Are Dandy, So The People All They Say
From New York To St. Louis And Chicago By The Way
From The Hills Of Minnesota Where The Rippling Waters Fall
No Changes Can Be Taken On That Wabash Cannonball
Verse 4
Here's To Daddy Claxton, May His Name Forever Stand
And Always Be Remembered 'Round The Ports Of Alabam'
His Earthly Race Is Over And The Curtains 'Round Him Fall
We'll Carry Him Home To Victory On The Wabash Cannonball
Instrumental Break
Verse 5
Now, Listen To The Jingle, The Rumble And The Roar
As She Glides Along The Woodlands, Through The Hills And By The Shore
Hear The Mighty Rush Of The Engine, Hear That Lonesome Hobo Squall
You're Traveling Through The Jungles On The Wabash Cannonball
