What was that old song, Late Last Night????
The TAG line should be [5-7] in Okie From Muskogee!

TAG: [5-1] We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse In Muskogee, Oklahoma, U.S. [1] A.

FIREBALL MAIL
Recorded by Roy Acuff
Written by Floyd Jenkins (aka Fred Rose)

[1] Here she comes-- look at her roll
There she goes-- eatin' that [5-7] coal
Watch her [1] fly-- look at her sail
Let her by, by, [5-7] by; it's the Fireball [1] Mail

Let her go-- look at her steam
Hear her blow-- whistle and scream
Like a hound-- waggin' his tail
Dallas bound, bound, bound; the Fireball Mail

Engineer-- makin' up time
Tracks are clear-- look at her climb
See that freight-- clearin' the rail
Bet she's late, late, late; the Fireball Mail

Watch her swerve-- look at her sway
Get that curve-- out of the way
Watch her fly-- look at her sail
Let her by, by, by; the Fireball Mail
