  • Текст песни Hank Snow - The Streamlined Cannonball



    A long steel rail and a short crosstie
    I'm on my way back home
    I'm on the train, the king of them all
    The Streamlined Cannonball

    (Chorus)
    Oh, she drives along like a cannonball
    Like a star on its heavenly flight
    This lonesome sound of the whistle you love
    As she travels thru the night

    Her headlight gleams out into the night
    Her firebox flash you see
    The blinds I ride and the lights I love
    Are home, sweet home, to me

    (Repeat chorus)

    I can see the smile of an engineer
    Although he's old and gray
    A contented heart he awaits back home
    Of the Streamlined Cannonball

    (Repeat chorus)
