Engine Engine lyrics

Engine, Engine # 9

Engine, engine number nine,
Comin’ down the railroad
line,
How much farther back did she get off?
Old brown suitcase that she
carried,
I've looked for it everywhere, it
Just ain't here among the
rest, and
I'm a little upset, yes, tell me...

Engine, engine number
nine,
Comin’ down the railroad line,
I know she got on in
Baltimore.
A hundred and ten miles ain't much distance,
But it sure do
make a difference --
I don't think she loves me anymore.

I warned her
of the dangers --
Don't speak to strangers.
If by chance she finds new
romance,
Warmer lips to kiss her,
Arms to hold her tighter,
Stirring
new fires inside her --
How I wish that it was me, instead of he
That
stands beside her.

Engine, engine number nine,
Comin’ down the
railroad line,
I know she got on in Baltimore.
A hundred and ten miles
ain't much distance,
But it sure do make a difference --
I don't think
she loves me anymore.

No, I don’t think she loves me any
more
(Fade)
