The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia line
The engine went by at six o'clock
And the cab went by at nine
In the pines
In the pines
The sun
never shines
And we shiver
When the north wind blows
Well I asked the captain
For the time of day
He said he
Threw his watch away
A long steel rail
And a short cross tie
And I'm on my
way
Back home
