In Mon-roe, Vir-gin-ia,

Say-in, “Steve, you’re way be-hind time.

Then he turned around and said,
F
To his black greasy fireman,
C G G7
“Hey, shovel on a little more coal.
C C7
And when we cross,
F
That White Oak Mountain,
C G7 C
Watch ol’ ninetyseven roll.”

Verse 3:
Well, it’s a mighty rough road,
From Lynchburg to Danville,
With a line on a three mile grade.
It was one that grade,
That he lost his airbrakes,
You shoulda seen what a jump he made.

Now, then, la-dies, you must take warn-ing,

C G G7

From this time on and learn.

C C7

Nev-er speak harsh words,

F

5 4 -5 -5 -5 -6 7
To your true lov-in’ hus-band,

C G7 C

-6 6 6 -6 6 5 5 -4 4
He may leave you and nev-er re-turn.
