Tonart: Gb major
Verse 1
D
This is a song about the
Rock Island Line
Railroad.
It used to run down into New Orleans
and if you had certain things on board,
you didn't have to pay any toll.
So this train driver pulls up
and the tow man asks him what
all he had on board.
He says, I got livestock, I got livestock,
I got pigs, I got cows,
I got sheep, I got mules,
I got old livestock.
He says, well, you're all right,
brother,
you can go right on through,
you don't have to pay any toll.
So the train driver hollers
back to his fireman
and tells him to throw on some more coal.
They start to pickin' up
a little bit of speed
Pickin' up a little more steam
Train driver sticks his head out the window
And he hollers back, he says
Well, I fooled you, I fooled you
I got pig -eye, I got pig -eye
I got old pig -eye
And the Rock Island Line,
she's a mighty good road
A
The Rock Island Line is the road to ride
D
The Rock Island Line is a
mighty good road
G
D
Well, if you ride, you gotta ride like a fine
G
To get your ticket at the station
D
on the Rock Island Line
Well, I may be right and I may be wrong
The engineer said before he died
A
Two more drinks he did like to try
The doctor said, what could they be?
D
A hot cup of coffee and
a cold glass of tea
Down the Rock Island Line,
she's a mighty good rule
A
The Rock Island Line is the road to ride
D
The Rock Island Line is
a mighty good rule
D
you gotta ride like a fine
G
To get your ticket at the station
D
on the Rock Island Line
Well, I may be right and I may be wrong
Well, it's cloudy in the east
and it looks like rain
A
Around the curve come a
passenger train
Northbound train on
the southbound track
D
All right, I'll leave him, but he
Down to Rock Island Line,
she's a mighty good road
A
Rock Island Line is the road to ride
D
Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
D
you gotta ride like fine
G
Get your ticket at the station
D
on the Rock Island Line
