[Verse]
D G
From the great Atlantic Ocean to the wide Pacific shore
A D
She climbs the flowery mountains over the hills and by the shores
D G
She's mighty tall and handsome she's known quite well by all
A D
She's a regular combination on the Wabash Cannonball
[Chorus]
D G
Listen to the jingle the rumble and the roar
A D
As she glides along the woodlands over the hills and by the shores
D G
The mighty rush of the engine hears those lonesome hobos call
A D
Travelin through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball
[Interlude]

[Verse]
E A
Now she came down from Birmingham one cold September day
B E
As she pulled into the station you could hear all the people say
E A
She's from Tenessee she's long and she's tall
B E
She came down from Birmingham on the Wabash Cannonball
[Chorus]
E A
Listen to the jingle the rumble and the roar
B E
As she glides along the woodlands over the hills and by the shores
E A
The mighty rush of the engine hears those lonesome hobos call
B E
Travelin through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball
[Interlude]

[Verse]
E A
Heres to Daddy Claxton may his name forever stand
B E
And always be remembered in the courts throughout the land
E A
His earthly race is over and the curtains round him fall
B E
They'll carry him home to Dixie on the Wabash Cannonball
[Chorus]
E A
Listen to the jingle the rumble and the roar
B E
As she glides along the woodlands over the hills and by the shores
E A
The mighty rush of the engine hears those lonesome hobos call
B E
Travelin through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball
