On The Railroad Lyrics - Artist : Longest Johns, The
Give me a spade and I'll give you a hole
(Way-O on the railroad) Dirt on my brow but steel in my soul (Way-O on the railroad) Picking up coal and we're picking up speed Shovel as much as the engine needs Sweat and blood gonna earn my pay All the way to 'Frisco Bay Blowing through hills trying to make up time (Way-O on the railroad) Ain't nothing gonna stand in the way of our line (Way-O on the railroad) Picking up coal and we're picking up speed Shovel as much as the engine needs Ain't no slave but we slave away All the way to 'Frisco Bay Bossman says that a mile a day's the pace (Way-O on the railroad) I'll make two for the look on his face (Way-O on the railroad) Picking up coal and we're picking up speed Shovel as much as the engine needs Ain't no slave but we slave away All the way to 'Frisco Bay Surveyor's trying to plan which route is best (Way-O on the railroad) Just draw a straight line from East to West (Way-O on the railroad) Picking up coal and we're picking up speed Shovel as much as the engine needs Ain't no slave but we slave away All the way to 'Frisco Bay Spare no quarter and we'll spare no man (Way-O on the railroad) Just pray we don't run in to the Cheyenne (Way-O on the railroad) Picking up coal and we're picking up speed Shovel as much as the engine needs Sweat and blood gonna earn my pay All the way to 'Frisco Bay Picking up coal and we're picking up speed Shovel as much as the engine needs Ain't no slave but we slave away All the way to 'Frisco Bay Picking up coal and we're picking up speed Shovel as much as the engine needs If I should fall leave me where I lay On the railway to 'Frisco Bay |
