[Chorus:]
|
Buddy, better get on down the line [Repeat], here comes ninety-seven, making up some time.
|
Buddy, this is ninety-seven at your back. Got a ton of coal poured down the stack.
|
Here comes ninety-seven, runnin' down the track.
|
|
Hey, hey, pretty baby, hey, hey. Baby, now don't get in my way.
|
When I'm in town, you call me sugar, honey. When I'm gone, just run around and play.
|
|
Buddy, better get on down the line [Repeat], here comes ninety-seven, comin' in on time.
|
Met a lot of weather early today. Makin' up an hour and a quarter delay.
|
Here comes ninety-seven, roarin' all the way.
|
|
Roll on, pretty baby, roll on. You know you're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
|
You mess around too long and now I'm leavin'. Bye-bye, adios, farewell, so long.
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
