[00:40.246]There’ll be some trouble
[00:41.634]Gonna be some trouble if the train don’t run
[00:44.409]And if the train don’t come (don’t come)
[00:47.085]It’d be a pity

[01:23.267]The engineer said gotta keep the wheels turning
[01:26.313]Keep the fire burning like an engineer should
[01:29.744]The engineer tried to keep the motor running
[01:32.659]Just a steaming and a shoveling water and wood
[01:35.704]But if the creek run dry, where’d you get the water?
[01:39.248]If the trees don’t grow, where’d you get the wood?
[01:42.084]And if the fish don’t bite, how you gonna feed ‘em?

[02:30.354]Lots and lots of whiskey when the news got out
[02:33.119]And then the railroad train stopped running
[02:36.820]The creek run dry and the trees don’t grow
[02:39.596]But when the booze ran out, he got a problem
