Lyrics Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton

Wabash Cannon Ball

It's good to be back home again at the Sevier Tennessee

I'm awful glad to see you hope you're glad to see me

Now I'd like to say I love you I welcome to you all

Now I know I stole this steam from the Wabash Cannonball

From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore

Up the hills and down the mountains and the valleys to the shore

She's mighty tall and handsome and known quite well by all

She's a mighty famous thing called the Wabash Cannonball

Well she came down from Birmingham one cold December day

As she pulled into the station you could hear all the people say

That's that train from Tennessee boys she's long and she's tall

She's a famous choo-choo train called the Wabash Cannonball
