(G) Here she comes - look at her roll
There she goes - eatin' that (D7) coal
Watch her (G) fly - look at her sail
let her by, by, (D7) by - it's the Fireball (G) Mail.
CHORUS
Let her go - look at her steam
Hear her blow - whistle and scream
Like a hound - waggin' his tail
Dallas bound, bound, bound - the Fireball Mail.
Engineer - makin' up time
Tracks are clear - look at her climb
See that freight - clearin' the rail
Bet she's late, late, late - the Fireball Mail.
Watch her swerve - look at her sway
Get that curve - out of the way
Watch her fly - look at her sail
Let her by, by, by - the Fireball Mail.
