verse 2
He turned and said to his black greasy fireman,
"Just shovel on a little more coal,
And when we cross the White Oak Mountain
You can watch old 'nenety-seven' roll."

verse 3
It's a mighty rough road 
from Lynchburg to Danville,
On a line on a three mile grade,
It was on this grade 
that he lost his average
You can see what a jump he made.

verse 4
He was going down the grade
makin' ninety miles an hour,
When his whistle broke into a scream,
They found him in the wrect
With his hand on the throttle,
He was scalded to death by the steam.

verse 5
Now, ladies, you must take warning,
From this time now on learn,
Never speak harsh words 
to your true loving husband,
He may leave you and never return.
