Wabash Cannon Ball

From the great Atlantic ocean
 To the wide Pacific shore
 From the queen of flowing mountains
 To the southbelt by the shore
 She's mighty tall and handsome
 And known quite well by all
 She's the combination
 On the Wabash Cannonball
 She came down from Birmingham
 One cold December day
 As she rolled into the station
 You could hear all the people say
 There's a girl from Tennessee
 She's long and she's tall
 She came down from Birmingham
 On the Wabash Cannonball
 Our eastern states are dandies
 So the people always say
 From New York to St. Louis
 And Chicago by the way
 From the hills of Minnesota
 Where the rippling waters fall
 No changes can be taken
 On the Wabash Cannonball
 Here's to Daddy Claxton
 May his name forever stand
 And always be remembered
 'Round the courts of Alabam
 His earthly race is over
 And the curtains round him fall
 We'll carry home to vic'try
 On the Wabash Cannonball
 Listen to the jingle
 And the rumble and the roar
 As she glides along the woodlands
 Through the hills and by the shore
 Hear the mighty rush of the engine
 Hear that lonesome hobo squall
 You're travlin' through the jungles
 On the Wabash Cannonball
