 Wabash Cannonball

A D
From the great Atlantic Ocean to the wide Pacific shore
E A
She climbs the flowery mountains, over hills and by the shore
D
Although she's mighty tall and handsome and she's known quite well by all
E A
She's a modern combination, the Wabash Cannonball.

Chorus:

A D
Oh, listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
E A
As she glides along the woodland, over hills and by the shore
D
She climbs the flowery mountains, hear the merry hobo squall
E A
As she glides along the woodland, the Wabash Cannonball.

Oh the Eastern states are dandy, so the Western people say

Chicago, Rock Island, St. Louis by the way
To the lakes of Minnesota where the rippling waters fall
No chances to be taken on the Wabash Cannonball.

Chorus

I have rode the I.C. Limited, also the Royal Blue

Across the Eastern counties on Elkhorn Number Two
I have rode these highball trains from coast to coast that's all
But I have found no equal to the Wabash Cannonball.

Chorus

Oh, here's old daddy Cleaton, let his name forever be

And long be remembered in the courts of Tennessee
For he is a good old rounder 'til the curtain round him fall
He'll be carried back to victory on the Wabash Cannonball.

RAMBLIN' MAN
Recorded by: Hank Williams, Sr.
Written by: Hank Williams, Sr.

I can [Am] settle dow-own and be doin' just fine

Til I [E7] hear an old train rollin' down the [Am] line
Then I hurry strai-aight home and pack
And if I [E7] didn't go, I believe I'd blow my [Am] stack
I love you ba-aby, but you gotta understand
When the [E7] Lord made me
He made a Ramblin' [Am] Man.

Some folks might sa-ay that I'm no good

That I wouldn't settle down if I could
But when that open ro-oad starts to callin' me
There's somethin' o'er the hill that I gotta see
Sometimes it's har-rd but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me, He made a Ra-amblin' Man.

I love to see the tow-owns a-passin' by

And to ride these rails 'neath God's blue sky
Let me travel this la-and from the mountains to the sea
'Cause that's the life I believe He meant for me
And when I'm go-one and at my grave you stand
Just say God called home your Ra-amblin' Man.

Oh my darling oh my darling

Thou art lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry Clementine
Light she was and like a fairy,
And her shoes were number nine;
Herring boxes, without topses,
Sandals were for Clementine.
Repeat chorus
Drove she ducklings to the water,
Every morning just at nine;
Hit her foot against a splinter,
Fell into the foaming brine.
Repeat chorus
Ruby lips above the water,
Blowing bubbles, soft and fine;
But Alas! I was no swimmer,
So I lost my Clementine.
Repeat chorus
When the miner forty-niner,
Soon began to peak and pine,
Thought he oughter "jine" his daughter,
Now he's with his clementine.
Repeat chorus
Where the myrtle boughs entwine,
Grow the roses in their poses,
Fertilized by Clementine.
Repeat chorus
In my dreams she still doth haunt me,
Robed in garments soaked in brine.
Though in life I used to hug her,
Now she's dead, I'll draw the line.
Repeat chorus
How I missed her, how I missed her
How I missed my Clementine.
So I kissed her little sister,
And forgot my Clementine.

Now you Boy Scouts, there's a moral
To this little tale of mine.
Artificial respiration,
Would have saved my Clementine.

 Cash on the Barrelhead
E
Got in a little trouble at the county seat
B7 E
Lord they put me in the jailhouse for loafing on the street

When the judge heard the verdict I was a guilty man

B7 E
He said forty five dollars or thirty days in the can

CHORUS
E7 A E
That'll be cash on the barrelhead son
B7 E
You can make your choice you're twenty one
E7 A E
No money down no credit plan
B7 E
No time to chase you cause I'm a busy man

E
Found a telephone number on a laundry slip
B7 E
I had a good hearted jailer with a six gun hip

He let me call long distance she said number please

B7 E
And no sooner than I told her she shouted out at me

CHORUS
Thirty days in the jailhouse four days on the road
B7 E
I was feeling mighty hungry my feet a heavy load

Saw a greyhound coming stuck up my thumb

B7 E
Just as I was being seated the driver caught my arm

CHORUS
