Thank you, my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the music video of Rhonda Vincent & The Rage performing her song "Kentucky Borderline"
Excellent performance IMHO.

"Kentucky Borderline" written by Rhonda Vincent and Terry Herd
Lyrics
"She pulled out of Mobile
In the pouring rain
Moving through the darkness
Like a hurricane
From southern gulf Port waters
To the Cumberland so green
Louisville by Nashville
And all points in between
Pounding out a rhythm
Making up lost time
Heading for that
Bluegrass state of mine

White smoke a rollin'
Whistle a blowin'
Listening to her engine keeping time
Kentucky borderline

Montgomery by morning
Birmingham by noon
Onward through the distance
Upward to the moon
Her lonesome whistle cries
A low sighed refrain
Like the boys down on Beale street
Singing of the pain
No one is gonna stop her
From her appointed rounds
This train is moving on
It's glory bound

Her lungs are full of fire
Breathing burning coal
A raging locomotion
Like thunder when it rolls
Singing for the mighty
Who cast her molten steel
Drawed the spike and laid the rail
To ride beneath her wheels
The pride of our nation
She's a monument to them
A southern bell
That mighty L&N"

I remember the L&N Railroad. It ran through Guthrie, a small railroad town in my county.
