GUEST,Guest - first request Lyr ADD: Rock Island Line (from Leadbelly) (36) Lyr Req: rock island line 08 Jan 06

I have all the words, I also have Donegan's version and Leadbelly's version but, I cannot make out the words to the Leadbelly introduction. the only words I understand are " the Rock Island Line'. I imagine he has recorded this a few times but this recording is from the Smithsonian Institute. I would appreciate the words from someone who has a more senstive ear than mine.

many thanks
