GUEST,Alexander Lyr Req: The Railway Fireman (Harry Gordon) (26) RE: Lyr Req: The Man that Makes the Smoke Come Out... 10 Jan 13


Ah'm the man ye kin see that ah'm the man, ah'm the man that maks the smoke come oot the lum, although ah'm a stoker, ah never need a poker tae mak the smoke come oot the lum. Oo, oo, ta, ta, ah shovel on the coals as they come, while yer sittin' by the fender, I am standing on the tender, ah'm the man that maks the smoke come oot the lum. Will Fyfe recorded that song around 1928.

There was also a bit of dialogue. He supposedly approaches a minister and asks him if he has a trunk in the luggage carriage, to which the man of the cloth says, "Yes, and it's filled with very important information". Will Fyfe replies, "Well, your information is leaking".
