From the Ggreat Atlantic ocean to the Cwide Pacific shore
She D7climbs a flowery mountains o'er the hills and by the Gshore
She's mighty tall and handsome she's Cknown quite well by all
She's a D7regular combination on the Wabash CannonGball
GListen to the jingle, the rumble and the Croar
As she D7glides along the woodland o'er the hills and by the Gshore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine hear those lonesome hoboes Ccall
D7Traveling through the jungle on the Wabash CannonGball
Well she came down from Birmingham one cold December day
As she pulled into the station you could hear all the people say
She's from Tennessee she's long and she's tall
She came down from Birmingham on the Wabash Cannonball
Here's to daddy Claxton may his name forever stand
And always be remembered in the courts throughout the land
His earthly race is over and the curtains round him fall
We'll carry him home to Dixie on the Wabash Cannonball
