[Verse]
They gave him his orders at Monroe, Virginia
Sayin', "Steve, you're way behind time
It's 8: 38, and it's the old '97, gotta put her into Danville on time"
[Chorus]
Well, it's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg down to Danville
On a line with a three-mile grade
It was down that line where he lost his air-brakes
You can see what a jump he made
[Verse]
Steve Brady he said to his black, greasy fireman
"Shovel on a little more coal
I'm waitin' to pass them wide-open mountains
Gonna see the old '97 roll"
[Chorus]
Well, it's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg down to Danville
On a line with a three-mile grade
It was down that line where he lost his air-brakes
You can see what a jump he made
[Verse]
He's comin' down that line makin' 90 miles an hour
The whistle broke into a scream
They found him in the wreck with his hand upon the throttle
He'd been scalded to death by steam
They gave him his orders at Monroe, Virginia
Sayin', "Steve, you're way behind time
It's 8: 38, and it's the old '97, gotta put her into Danville on time"
[Chorus]
Well, it's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg down to Danville
On a line with a three-mile grade
It was down that line where he lost his air-brakes
You can see what a jump he made
[Verse]
Steve Brady he said to his black, greasy fireman
"Shovel on a little more coal
I'm waitin' to pass them wide-open mountains
Gonna see the old '97 roll"
[Chorus]
Well, it's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg down to Danville
On a line with a three-mile grade
It was down that line where he lost his air-brakes
You can see what a jump he made
[Verse]
He's comin' down that line makin' 90 miles an hour
The whistle broke into a scream
They found him in the wreck with his hand upon the throttle
He'd been scalded to death by steam
