Verse 1
D
Now this here's the story about
the Rock Island Line
The Rock Island Line she runs
down into New Orleans
It's just outside of New Orleans
is a big toll gate
You know all the trains that go
through the toll gate
They gotta pay the man some money
But of course,
if you got certain things on board
You're okay and you don't have
to pay the man nothin'
And just now we see a change comin
down the line
When you come up to the toll gate
The driver, he shout down
to the man and he says

just get on through
You don't have to pay me nothin'"
And then the train go through
And when he go through the tollgate

and a little bit of speed
And when the driver think
he safely on the other side
He shouts back down the line
