The Singing Scoutmaster: Wabash Cannonball

DFrom the great Atlantic ocean,

to the wide Pacific Gshore,

From the A7green and flowing mountains,

through the hills and by the Dshore.

DShe's mighty tall and handsome,

and known quite well by Gall,

She A7is the combination,

on the Wabash Cannon-Dball.

DShe came down from Birmingham

one cold December Gday,

As she A7rolled into the station

you could hear the people Dsay,

DThis train's a wondrous vision,

she is long and she is Gtall,

She A7came from Birmingham

on the Wabash Cannon-Dball.

DOur eastern states are dandy

so the people always Gsay,

From A7New York to St Louis

and Chicago by the Dway.

DFrom the hills of Minnesota

where the rippling waters Gfall,

No A7changes can be taken

on that Wabash Cannon-Dball.

DHere's to Daddy Claxton

may his name forever Gstand,

And A7always be remembered

round the ports of Ala-Dbam'.

DHis earthly race is over

and the curtains 'round him Gfall,

We'll A7carry him home to Vict'ry

on the Wabash Cannon-Dball.

DNow listen to the jingle,

the rumble and the Groar,

As she A7glides along the woodlands

through the hills and by the Dshore.

DHear the mighty rushing engine,

hear the lonesome hobos Gcall,

You're A7traveling through the jungles

on the Wabash Cannon-Dball.
