uncle dave macon – wreck of the tennessee gravy train كلمات اغاني
[verse 1]
the people of tennessee want to know
who wrecked our gravy train
the one we thought was run so well
and now who can we blame?
they want to know who greased the track
and started it down the road
this same ol’ train contained our money
to build our highway roads
[chorus]
but now we’re up against it and no use to raise a row
but of all the times i’ve ever seen, we’re sure up against it now
the only thing that we can do is to do the best we can
follow me good people, i’m bound for thе promised land
[verse 2]
now, i could be a banker
without thе least excuse
but look at the treasurer of tennessee
and tell me what’s the use
we lately bonded tennessee
for just five million bucks
the bonds were issued and the money tied up
and now we’re in tough luck
[chorus]
but now we’re up against it and no use to raise a row
but of all the times i’ve ever seen, we’re sure up against it now
the only thing that we can do is to do the best we can
follow me good people, i’m bound for the promised land
[verse 3]
some lay it all on parties
some lay it on others you see
but now that you can plainly see
what happened to tennessee
for the engineer pulled the throttle
conductor rang the bell
the brakeman hollered “all aboard”
and the banks all went to h_ll
[chorus]
but now we’re up against it and no use to raise a row
but of all the times i’ve ever seen, we’re sure up against it now
the only thing that we can do is to do the best we can
follow me good people, i’m bound for the promised land
