Engine 143

Along came the F-15 the swiftest on the line

Running over the C and O road just twenty minutes behind

Running into Cevile head porters on the line

Receiving their strict orders from a station just behindGeorgie's mother came to him with a bucket on her arm

Saying my darling son be careful how you run

Many a man has lost his life by trying to make lost time

But if you run your engine right you'll get there just on timeUp the road he darted against the rocks he crushed

Upside down the engine turned and Georgie's breast did smash

His head was against the firebox door the flames were rolling high

I'm glad I was born to be an engineer on the C and O road to dieThe doctor said to Georgie my darling son be still

Your life may yet be saved if it is God's blessed will

Oh no said George that will not do I want to die so free

I want to die for the engine I love one hundred and forty three

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
