[1] See that engine puffing boy she's making time
That old train is wearing out the [5] rail rail rail
[1] Heading for the mountain that she's got to climb
[1] Bringing in the [5] Georgia [1] mail

Ninety miles an hour and she's gaining speed
Listen to the whistle moan and wail wail wail
Has she got the power I say yes indeed
Bringing in the Georgia mail

See them drivers travel watch her span the track
Ought to put that engineer in jail jail jail
Has he got her rolling watch her ball the jack
Bringing in the Georgia mail

Rocking and a reeling spouting off the steam
Stoke the fire and hope the brakes don't fail fail fail
Turning for the depot listen to her scream
Bringing in the Georgia mail
