[Intro]
G
[Verse]
D G
Now I've been an engine driver all of my days
C
That's the only thing I can do
G D G
I hold a good head of steam everywhere that I'm seen
C G
Wherever my wheels rolled through
C G
Wherever my wheels rolled through
[Verse]
D G
Well, I was nearly shut down in a Midwest town
C
Her hair was red, her eyes were blue
G D G
But the wheels on the track kept calling me back
C G
So, I bid that girl adieu
C G D
Yes, I bid that girl adieu
[Chorus]
G C
Blow whistle, steel wheels keep on humming
G
Hold on darling, your engine driver's coming
D
He's coming through
[Verse]
G D G
Some day I'll have to give up the iron lion
C
And then I'll know just what I will find
G D G
I'll find me some shack by some old railroad track
C G
So I can hear them motors whine
C G D
So I can hear them motors whine
[Chorus]
G
Blow whistle, hear them steel rails a-humming
C G
Hold on darling, your engineer is coming
D
He's coming through
[Verse]
G D G
Now I've been an engine driver all of my days
C
That's the only thing I can do
G D G
I hold a good head of steam anywhere that I'm seen
C G
Anywhere my trains rolled through
C G D
Anywhere my trains rolled through
[Chorus]
G
Blow whistle, hear that steel rail a-humming
C G
Hold on girl, your engine driver's a-coming
D
Coming to you
[Outro]
