Текст песни: Wabash Cannon Ball + перевод

From the great Atlantic ocean

To the wide Pacific shore

From the green New Hampshire mountains

To the Southland’s Cajun lore

She’s streamlined and she’s welcomed

By the trainmen one and all

She’s a railroad institution

Called the Wabash Cannonball

Listen to the jingle

The rumble and the roar

As she rolls on down the mountains

From the hills and by the shore

Hear the mighty rush of the engine

Hear that lonesome whistle squall

It mingled with the jingle

On the Wabash Cannonball

She came down through Birmingham

One cold December day

As she rolled into the station

You could hear 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 western people say

From to St. Louis

Cincinnati by the way

From the hills of Minnesota

Where the rippling waters fall

The flatlands of New Jersey

On the Wabash Cannonball

Well take that ghost of Casey Jones

May his name forever stand

He has built a reputation

With the railroads of our land

His final run is over

And before the curtains fall

We’ll carry him back to Dixie

On the Wabash Cannonball

Listen to the jingle

The rumble and the roar

As she rolls on down the mountains

From the hills and by the shore

Hear the mighty rush of the engine

Hear that lonesome whistle squall

It mingled with the jingle

On the Wabash Cannonball
