GUEST,Meadow Muskrat Lyr ADD: Way Down the Road (Craig Johnson) (52* d) Lyr Req: Lyric/Discography for Way Down The Line. 01 Aug 04


I'm looking for the lyrics and any recording information for a song called Way Down The Line. I saw Sally Rogers and Howie Burson perform it many years ago.They said the writer was a fiddler from Kentucky. The song is about the people in the area migrating to the
Industrial cities of the upper midwest after World War 2 in order to find work.The chorus went something like:
   " Blow it on high on through the pines,
    Way down yonder on the Clinchfield Line
    Blow for better times
    Way down the line"
