Rock Island Line (Larry W. Jones 10/19/2007) (song#5092)
Well, the Rock Island Line was a mighty fine line
Yeah, the Rock Island Line was the railroad to ride
But now the old Rock Island Line has seen it’s time
You can’t buy a ticket on the Rock Island Line
The hobos all cried when they lost their ride
They lost their ride when the Rock Island died
Well, the Rock Island Line was a mighty fine line
Yeah, the Rock Island Line was the railroad to ride
But now the old Rock Island Line has seen it’s time
You can’t buy a ticket on the Rock Island Line
Heard lots of shoutin’ from the stevedores
When the old Rock Island Line closed its doors
Well, the Rock Island Line was a mighty fine line
Yeah, the Rock Island Line was the railroad to ride
But now the old Rock Island Line has seen it’s time
You can’t buy a ticket on the Rock Island Line
Now, I might be wrong or I might be right
I thought I dreamed of that Rock Island light
Well, the Rock Island Line was a mighty fine line
Yeah, the Rock Island Line was the railroad to ride
But now the old Rock Island Line has seen it’s time
You can’t buy a ticket on the Rock Island Line
Yeah, the Rock Island Line was the railroad to ride
But now the old Rock Island Line has seen it’s time
You can’t buy a ticket on the Rock Island Line
