Verse 1
Rock Island Line
Railroad.
It used to run down into New Orleans
and if you had certain things on board,
you didn't have to pay any toll.
So this train driver pulls up
and the tow man asks him what
all he had on board.
He says, I got livestock, I got livestock,
I got pigs, I got cows,
I got sheep, I got mules,
I got old livestock.
He says, well, you're all right,
brother,
you can go right on through,
you don't have to pay any toll.
So the train driver hollers
back to his fireman
and tells him to throw on some more coal.
They start to pickin' up
a little bit of speed
Pickin' up a little more steam
Train driver sticks his head out the window
And he hollers back, he says
Well, I fooled you, I fooled you
I got pig -eye, I got pig -eye
I got old pig -eye
And the Rock Island Line,
she's a mighty good road
mighty good road
G
D
Well, if you ride, you gotta ride like a fine
Well, I may be right and I may be wrong
The engineer said before he died
The doctor said, what could they be?
a cold glass of tea
Down the Rock Island Line,
she's a mighty good rule
a mighty good rule
Well, I may be right and I may be wrong
Well, it's cloudy in the east
and it looks like rain
passenger train
Northbound train on
the southbound track
Down to Rock Island Line,
she's a mighty good road
