verse 2
Georgie’s mother came to him,
A bucket on her arm.
Saying to herr darling son,
“Be careful how you run;
Many a man has lost his lift
Trying to make lost time,
And if you run your engine right,
You’ll get there just on time.”

verse 3
Up the road she darted,
Against the rock she crushed,
Upside down the engine turned
And georgie’s breast did smash
His head against the fire-box door,
The flames were rolling high.
“I’m glad I was born for an engineer,
On the C & O Road to die.”

verse 4
The doctor said to Georgie,
“My darling boy, be still,
Your life may yet be saved
If it is God’s blessed Will.”
“Oh, no,” said George,
“That will not do,
I wantto die for the engine I love,
One and Forty-Three.”

verse 5
The doctor said to Georgie,
“Your life cannot be saved,
Murdered upon the railroad,
And laid in a lonesome grave.”
His face was covered up with blood,
His eyes you could not see,
And the very last words poor Georgie said,
Were “Nearer, my God, to thee.”
