[A] [D]
[E] [A] From the great Atlantic Ocean to the wide Pacific [D] shore, [E] from the queen of flowing mountains to the south belt [A] by the shore,
she's mighty tall and handsome, she's known quite well [D] by all.
[E] She's a combination on the wall [A]-based cannonball.
She came down to Birmingham one cold December [D] day, [E] as she rolled into the station you could hear all the [A] people say,
there's a girl from Tennessee, she's long and [D] she's tall, [E] she came down to Birmingham on the wall-based [A] cannonball.
[D] [E]
[A]
Now here's to Daddy Claxton, may his name forever [D] stand [E] and always be remembered in the courts [A] of Alabama.
His earthly race is over and the curtains round him [D] fall, we'll carry [E] him home to victory on the wall-based [A] cannonball.
So listen to the jingle, the rumble [D] and the roar, [E] as she glides along the woodland through the hills [A] and by the shore.
Hear the mighty rush of the engine, hear the mountain [D] hobo's roar, [E] you're traveling through the jungle on the wall [A]-based cannonball.
