Rock Island Line (石岛线路) - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)

Oh the rock island line it is a mighty good

Road

Oh that rock island line it is the road to

Ride

The rock island line it is a mighty good road

But if you want to ride you got to ride

It like you find it

Get your ticket at the station for the rock island

Line

Cloudy in the west looks like rain

Bought me a ticket on a railroad train

Pour on the water shovel on the coals

Stick your head out the window see the drivers roll

Well the rock island line it is a mighty good

Road

Oh that rock island line it is a road to

Ride

The rock island line it is a mighty good road

But if you want to ride you got to ride

It like you find it

Get your ticket at the station for the rock island

Line

The 745 was always late

But arrived today at a quarter to eight

The engineer said when they cheered his name

We're right on time but this is yesterday's train

Well the rock island line it is a mighty good

Road

Oh that rock island line it is the road to

Ride

The rock island line it is a mighty good road

But if you want to ride you got to ride

It like you find it

Get your ticket at the station for the rock island

Line

The engineer said before he died

There's two more drinks that I would like to try

The conductor said what can they be

A hot glass of water and a cold cup of

Tea

Well the rock island line it is a mighty good

Road

Oh that rock island line it is the road to

Ride

The rock island line it is a mighty good road

But if you want to ride you got to ride

It like you find it

Get your ticket at the station for the rock island

Line

The eastbound train was on the westbound track

The northbound train was on the southbound track

The conductor hollered now ain't this fine

What a peculiar way to run a railway line

Well the rock island line it is a mighty good

Road

Oh that rock island line it is the road to

Ride

The rock island line it is a mighty good road

But if you want to ride you got to ride

It like you find it

Get your ticket at the station for the rock island

Line

Ticket at the station for the rock island line
