Thank you my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the Tribute To The King of Country Music ~ Roy Acuff as he sings "Wabash Cannonball"
The Wabash Cannonball was originally written by J. A. Roff, William Kindt. It was first released in 1929 by Hugh Cross
Wabash Cannonball by Roy Acuff
Lyrics
From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore
From the queen of flowing mountain to the south bell by the shore
She's mighty tall and handsome and know quite well by all
She’s the combination on the Wabash Cannonball
She came down from Birmingham one cold December day
As she rolled in the station you could hear all the people say
There's a girl from Tennessee she's long and she's tall
She came down from Birmingham on the Wabash Cannonball
Our estern states are dandies so the people always say
From New York to St. Louis and Chicago by the way
From the hills of Minnesota where the rippling waters fall
No changes can be taken on the Wabash Cannonball
Here’s to daddy Claxton may his name forever stand
And always…"
