Lyrics
From the great Atlantic Ocean to the (C)wide Pacific's shore,
from the (D7)ones we leave behind us to the (G)ones we (C)see once (D7)more.
She's (G)mighty tall and handsome, and (C)quite well known by all,
(D7)how we love the choo choo of the Wabash (G)Cannonball.
Hear the bell and whistle calling,
hear the (C)wheels that go "clack clack",
hear the (D7)roaring of the engine,
as she (G)rolls (C)along the (D7)track.
The (G)magic of the railroad wins (C)hearts of one and all,
as we (D7)reach our destination on the Wabash (G)Cannonball.
Listen to the rhythmic jingle and the (C)rumble and the roar,
as she (D7)glides along the woodlands through the (G)hills and (C)by the (D7)shore.
You (G)hear the mighty engine and (C)pray that it won't stall,
(D7)while we safely travel on the Wabash (G)Cannonball.
Hear the bell and whistle calling,
hear the (C)wheels that go "clack clack",
hear the (D7)roaring of the engine,
as she (G)rolls (C)along the (D7)track.
The (G)magic of the railroad wins (C)hearts of one and all,
as we (D7)reach our destination on the Wabash (G)Cannonball.
She was ball.
