Rock Island Line

Now, this here's the story about the Rock Island line

Now, the Rock Island line is a railroad line

And it runs down into New Orleasn

And just outside of New Orleans is a big toll gate

And all the trains that go through the toll gate

Why, they gotta pay the man some money

Less of course, they got certain things on board

Then they okay, then they don't ever have to pay the man nothin'

And right now, we see a train

She's comin' on down the line

And when she got up here to the toll gate

The-a depot, he shout down to the driver

He want to know what he got on board

So he say a

What you got on board there, boy

And the driver, he sing right on back

Down to the depot agent

Tell him what he got on board

The got a way of singing

I got sheep, I got cows

I got horses, I got pigs

I got all livestock

I got all livestock

I got all livestock

And the man say, well, he say

Your alright there, boy

You don't have to pay me nothin'

Just get 'em on through

So the train go through the toll gate

And as it go through

It got up a little bit of steam

And a, a little bit of speed

And when he sees me

On the other side of the toll gate

They, the driver shout back

Down the line to the man

'Course you don't hear what he say now

But home down the Rock Island line

I fooled you, I fooled you

I got pig iron, I got pig iron

I got all pig iron

He said, tell you where I'm goin', boy

Goin' down the Rock Island line, yes, yes

She's a mighty good road

Oh well, the Rock Island line
