streamlined cannonball - doc watson & earl scruggs lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s a long steel rail and a short crosstie
i’m on my way back home
i’m on that train, the king of them all
that streamlined cannonball

[chorus]
she moves along like a cannonball
like a star in its heavenly flight
the lonesome sound from the whistle you love
as she travels through the night

let me hear you, boy
a*ha

[verse 2]
headlight beams out through the night
and the firebox flash you can see
i ride them blinds, it’s the life that i love
lord, it’s home, sweet home to me

[chorus]
she moves along like a cannonball
like a star in its heavеnly flight
the lonesome sound from thе whistle you love
as she travels through the night
[verse 3]
i can see a smile on the engineer’s face
and although he’s old and gray
contented heart, he waits for his call
on that streamlined cannonball

you pick ’em up, boy
ah now, that’s pretty

[chorus]
she moves along like a cannonball
like a star in its heavenly flight
the lonesome sound from the whistle you love
as she travels through the night
