[Audience Cheering]

[Intro]
Alright!

[Verse 1]
Yeah, heard the diesel drumming all down the line
Yeah, heard the wires a humming all down the line
Yeah, and the the women crying all down the line
Yeah, and the old man dying all down the line

[Chorus]
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Well, you can't say yes and you can't say no
Just be right there when the whistle blows
I need a sanctified mind to help me out right now

[Verse 2]
Yeah, heard the diesel drumming all down the line
Yeah, heard the wires a humming all down the line

[Chorus]
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
I need a shot of salvation once in a while
And I wish somebody [?] for a thousand miles
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Well I can't say yes and
Well, you can't say yes and you can't say no
Just be right there when the whistle blows
I need a shot of salvation, baby, once in a while

[Bridge]
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
You know
Oh yeah
