Little Jimmy Dickens – Fireball Mail lyrics

(Floyd Jenkins)

Here she comes, look at her roll
There she goes eatin' that coal
Watch her fly and look at her sail
Let her by, by, by the fireball mail.

Let her go, look at her steam
Hear her blow, whistle and scream
Like a hound a waggin' his tail
She's Dallas bound, bound, bound the fireball mail.

--- Instrumental ---

Engineer makin' up time
Tracks're clear, look at her climb
See that freight clearin' the rail
I 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.

--- Instrumental ---

Watch her go, look at her steam
Hear her blow, whistle and scream
Like a hound a waggin' his tail
She's Dallas bound, bound, bound the fireball mail.

She's Dallas bound, bound, bound the fireball mail.
She's Dallas bound, bound, bound the fireball mail...
