Joan Baez
Joan Baez - Engine 143
Engine 143
Tekst piosenki:
The swiftest on the line
Running o'er the C&O road
Just twenty minutes behind
Running into Sou'ville
Headquarters on the line
Receiving there strict orders
From a station just behind
Georgie's mother came to him
With a bucket on her arm
She said my darling son
Be careful how you run
This many a man has lost his life
In trying to make lost time
But if you run your engine right
You'll get there just on time
Up the track she darted
In to the rocks he crashed
Upside down the engine turned
And Georgie's breast was smashed
His head lay against the firebox door
The flames were rolling high
I'm glad to be born for an engineer
On the C&O road to die
The doctor said to Georgie
My darling boy be still
Your life may yet be saved
If it is God's blessed will
Oh no cry George that will not do
I want to die so free
I want to die with the engine I love
One hundred and forty three
And the doctor said to Georgie
Your life cannot be saved
Murdered upon a railway
And laid in a lonesome grave
His face was covered up with blood
His eyes they could not see
And the very last words poor Georgie cry
Was nearer my God to thee.
