Ferlin Husky "Tennessee Central (Number 9)" |
(Beasley Smith) Oh, that big black engine comes a puffin' round the bend Puffin' round the bend, puffin' round the bend Oh, that big black engine comes a puffin' round the bend It's the Tennessee Central No. 9. With her smokestack blazin' she's a burnin' up the wind Burnin' up the wind, burnin' up the wind With her smokestack blazin' she's a burnin' up the wind It's the Tennessee Central No. 9. Oh, that ol' TC it's good enough for me Let the flagman give that engineer the sign Get a feelin' I must go when I hear that whistle blow On the Tennessee Central No. 9. All aboard good people can't you hear that bell a ringin' Hear that bell a ringin', dongin' and a dingin' All aboard good people can't you hear that bell a ringin' The Tennessee Central No. 9. Gonna hit that mountain just a rockin' and a reelin' Rockin' and a reelin', moanin' and a squealin' Gonna hit that mountain just a rockin' and a reelin' On the Tennessee Central No. 9. When she leaves the station she'll be pantin' and a blowin' Pantin' and a blowin', gettin' and a goin' When she leaves the station she'll be pantin' and a blowin' It's the Tennessee Central No. 9. We'll roll into Knoxville just a shoutin' and a singin' Shoutin' and a singin', swayin' and a swingin' We'll roll into Knoxville just a shoutin' and a singin' On the Tennessee Central No. 9. Oh, that ol' TC it's good enough for me Let the flagman give that engineer the sign Get a feelin' I must go when I hear that whistle blow On the Tennessee Central No. 9...
