That's that fast Special
Leavin' Memphis, Tennessee
into New Orleans.
She so fast the hobos don't
fool this train. They stand on the
track their hat in their hands.

I had a friend that mornin' was

She got up singin' this

'Hey Dad, I'm sorry to my home

Lord, Lord, Lord,

She was tippin cars on switch
Gettin' her water and on the fly
You could hear her she was strikin'
that iron like this:

The people's always standin' at the

You hear her when she squalls.
