《The Wreck Of The Old ’97》歌词

[00:00:00] The Wreck Of The Old '97 - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:05] Well they gave him his orders at Monroe Virginia sayin' Steve you're way behind time

[00:00:13] This is not 38 this is old 97 you must put her into Spencer on time

[00:00:22] Then he turned around and said to his black greasy fireman shovel on a little more coal

[00:00:30] And when we cross that White Oak Mountain watch old 97 roll

[00:00:39] Guitar

[00:00:56] But it's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg to Danville

[00:01:00] With a line on a three mile grade

[00:01:04] It was on that grade that he lost his air brakes see what a jump he made

[00:01:12] He was goin' down the grade makin' 90 miles an hour his whistle broke into a scream

[00:01:20] He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle

[00:01:25] A scalded to death by the steam

[00:01:28] Dobro

[00:01:29] So now all you ladies you better take a warnin' from this time on and learn

[00:01:37] Never speak harsh words to your true lovin' husband

[00:01:41] He may leave you and never return
