Rock Island Line Lyrics by Blues Delight

Rock Island Line

2006

The Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
Rock Island Line is the road to ride
The Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
If you wanna ride, gotta ride it like you find it
Get your ticket at the station on the Rock Island Line

Well maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
But I know you'll miss me when I'm gone

The Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
Rock Island Line is the road to ride
The Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
If you wanna ride, gotta ride it like you find it
Get your ticket at the station on the Rock Island Line

I wanna wash my face in Mexico
And eat my breakfast at a thousand miles below

The Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
Rock Island Line is the road to ride
The Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
If you wanna ride, gotta ride it like you find it
Get your ticket at the station on the Rock Island Line

Sun goes up, sun goes down
Time to leave this lonesome town

Yeah, the Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
Rock Island Line is the road to ride
The Rock Island Line is a mighty good road
If you wanna ride, gotta ride it like you find it
Get your ticket at the station on the Rock Island Line

Talk about hammerin' nails, oh Lord no
You gotta hammer that nail, boy
Hammer that nail
Take me down, take me down to Mexico
Now you gotta tell it like it is

It's a long freight train
It's a mean old train (Ah yeah yeah yeah!)
Na na na na na na!
