Written by Floyd Jenkins

Key of G · Chords: I IV

Verse 1

C
Here she comes look at her roll
                           G7
There she goes eating that coal
                          C
Watch her fly look at her sail
              G7                   C
Let her by by by it's the fireball mail

Verse 2

Let her go look at her steam
                          G7
Hear her blow whistle and scream
                         C
Like a hound wagging his tail
                   G7                 C
Dallas bound bound bound the fireball mail

Verse 3

Engineer making up time
                             G7
Tracks are clear look at her climb
                              C
See that freight clearing the rail
                    G7                C
Bet she's late late late the fireball mail

Verse 4

Watch her swerve look at her sway
                          G7
Get that curve out of the way
                          C
Watch her fly look at her sail
              G7              C
Let her by by by the fireball mail
