[Verse 1]
From the great Atlantic ocean
To the wide Pacific shores
From the queen of the flowing mountains
To the south-bells by the shore
She's mighty tall and handsome
And known quite well by all
She's the combination
Of the Wabash Cannonball

[Chorus]
Listen to the jingle
The rumble and the roar
As she guides along the woodland
Through the hills and by the shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine
Hear that lonesome hobos squawl
You're traveling through the jungle
On the Wabash Cannonball

[Verse 2]
Now 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, she's tall
She came down from Birmingham
On the Wabash Cannonball
[Chorus]
Listen to the jingle
The rumble and the roar
As she guides along the woodland
Through the hills and by the shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine
Hear that lonesome hobos squawl
You're traveling through the jungle
On the Wabash Cannonball

[Verse 3]
Here's to daddy Claxton
May his name forever stand
And always be remembered
In the courts of Alabam
His earthly race is over
And the curtains 'round him fall
We'll carry him home to victory
On the Wabash Cannonball

[Chorus]
Listen to the jingle
The rumble and the roar
As she guides along the woodland
Through the hills and by the shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine
Hear that lonesome hobos squawl
You're traveling through the jungle
On the Wabash Cannonball
