Put your head out the window, watch the drDivers rGoll
Watch the drivers rColl watch the drivers rGoll
Stick your head out the window, watch the drDivers rGoll

Two more roads that he wanDted to rGide
His fiGreman asked him what could they be
Said the old Northeastern and the DA and GB
He said the A and CB he said the A and GB
It's the old Northeastern and the DA and GB

On the eGarly morning it began to rain
Around the curve come a passDenger trGain

Then GBen, he turned and he shook his head
He said We may make Atlanta but we'll aDll be dGead
The tGrain was a-flyin' by a troublesome switch
Without any warning then she tDook the diGtch
Yes, she took the diCtch well, she took the dGitch
Without any warning then she tDook the diGtch
