Well the big train keeps on rolling
|
Rolling on down the track
|
And the way she's moving buddy
|
I don't believe she's a-coming back
|
|
The fireman's smoking a big cigar
|
Sipping Lafite Rothschild Bordeaux
|
And the engineer's so happy
|
He's just a-letting that whistle blow
|
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
She keeps a-rolling on proud and fine
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
Down that long twin silver line
|
|
Well she just blazed through Chicago
|
Nonstop to L.A.
|
And the way she's steaming buddy
|
You better not get in her way
|
She's got the finest fastest pulling twin diesels
|
She's got ninety three cars in tow
|
She's gonna be on time
|
All the way down the line
|
Come the rain hail sleet or snow
|
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
She keeps a-rolling on right on time
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
She keeps a-rolling
|
Down that long twin silver line
|
Rolling on down the line
|
And she just passed in Chicago
|
Rolling into Kansas too
|
Rolling into Denver
|
Doing all she'll do
|
And she hangs a big left in Salt Lake City
|
|
Southwest to the Nevada line
|
Rolling into California
|
Right on time
|
Rolling on down the line
|
