From the great Atlantic Ocean
To the wide Pacific shore
I saw the Queen of Flowing Rivers
Mighty mountains by the score
She's mighty tall and handsome
Yeah, she's loved by one and all
A streamlined combination
Called the Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
Loved by one and all
The Wabash Cannonball
O'er the Queen of Flowing Rivers
And mighty mountains by the score
On a streamlined combination
The Wabash Cannonball
Can you hear the jingle
The rumble and the roar
As she glides along the woodland
O'er the hills, and by the shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine
The lonesome hobo squall
Riding through the jungle
On the Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
Loved by one and all
The Wabash Cannonball
Hear the mighty rush of the engine
The lonesome hobo squall
Riding through the jungle
On the Wabash Cannonball
Now the Eastern states are dandies
So the Western people say
From New York to Saint Louie
And Chicago, by the way
Through the hills of Minnesota
Where rippling waters fall
No chances can be taken
On the Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
Loved by one and all
The Wabash Cannonball
Through the hills of Minnesota
Where rippling waters fall
No chances can be taken
On the Wabash Cannonball
Here's to Daddy Claxton
Who sang it with the Angel Band
May he ever be remembered
In parts of all our land
When this Earthly race is over
And the curtain 'round us falls
We'll ride with him to Glory
On the Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
The Wabash Cannonball
Loved by one and all
The Wabash Cannonball
When this Earthly race is over
And the curtain 'round us falls
We'll ride with him to Glory
On the Wabash Cannonball
