THE WRECK OF THE OLD 97.

Capo 0

|G |C

They gave him his orders at Monroe Vaginia

|G |D

sayin' Steve your way behind the time

|G |C

this is not thirty eight this is old ninety seven

|G |D |G

you must pull her into Spencer on time.

|G |C

He turned and he said to his black greasy fireman

|G |D

let's shovel on a little more coal

|G |C

and when we cross that wide oak mountain

|G |D |G

just watch old ninety seven roll.

|G |C

Was a mighty rough road from Lenburg to Danvill

|G |D

on a climb with a three mile grade

|G |C

it was on that grade that he lost his air brakes

|G |D |G

see what a jump he made.

|G |C

He was comin' down the grade makin' ninety miles an hour

|G |D

his whistle broke into a scream

|G |C

he was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle

|G |D |G

scalded to death by the steam

|G |C

Well all you ladies had better take a warnin'

|G |D

from this time on and learn

|G |C

never speak harsh words to your true love or husband

|G |D |G

he may leave you and never re-turn.
