[Verse 1]
A long steel rail, a short cross-tie
I'm on my way back home
I’m on a train, the king of them all
The Streamlined Cannonball
[Chorus]
She move along like a cannonball
Like a star in its heavenly flight
A lonesome sound from the whistle you love
As she travels through the night
[Verse 2]
Her headlights gleam out in the night
Her firebox flash you see
The blinds I ride is the life that I love
It's home sweet home to me
[Chorus]
She move along like a cannonball
Like a star in its heavenly flight
A lonesome sound from the whistle you love
As she travels through the night
A long steel rail, a short cross-tie
I'm on my way back home
I’m on a train, the king of them all
The Streamlined Cannonball
[Chorus]
She move along like a cannonball
Like a star in its heavenly flight
A lonesome sound from the whistle you love
As she travels through the night
[Verse 2]
Her headlights gleam out in the night
Her firebox flash you see
The blinds I ride is the life that I love
It's home sweet home to me
[Chorus]
She move along like a cannonball
Like a star in its heavenly flight
A lonesome sound from the whistle you love
As she travels through the night
